Beckham starts in Real Madrid's tie

By Frank Henriksen

Real Madrid rallied for a 2-2 tie at Zaragoza on Saturday to keep alive hopes for its 30th Spanish league title.

David Beckham started for Madrid despite not being 100 percent after spraining his ankle while playing for England on Wednesday and needed treatment in the 83rd minute.

Ruud Van Nistelrooy scored his second goal of the game in the 89th minute. He shrugged off a defender to score his league-leading 25th goal of the season.

Madrid and Barcelona lead the league with 73 points, though Madrid wins on head-to-head should they remain tied in the standings. Sevilla has 71 points.

Madrid can clinch its first title since 2003 if it beats Mallorca at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium next Sunday.
