ANNA FRIEL - FRIEL REGRETS MISSED SOCCER STAR MEETING

British actress ANNA FRIEL regrets not hanging out with world class soccer players while filming her latest movie GOAL! 2 - but was too busy getting to grips with motherhood. The former UK soap star appears in the second installment of the $100 million (GBP50.8 million) sports trilogy, which charts the rise to fame of a Mexican boy who becomes a worldwide soccer icon. But Friel didn't get a chance to relax with her co-stars, and real-life soccer players ZINIDINE ZIDANE, RONALDO and DAVID BECKHAM, because she had just given birth to her daughter GRACIE - from her relationship with actor DAVID THEWLIS. She says, "When I wasn't shooting, I was rushing around breast-feeding or having to deal with leaking breasts which grew and grew and grew."
