Bidders offer millions for Beckham penalty miss ball from Euro 2004


David Beckham's errant penalty kick in the shootout of the Euro 2004 quarter-final against Portugal was costly for England.

But the ball the soccer star blazed into the stands on June 24 is proving even costlier. It has attracted a bid of 10 million euros ($16.3 million Cdn) on an Internet auction site and promises to make a multimillionaire of the Spaniard who caught it in the stands.
