Romeo Beckham came off the bench to inspire Brentford B to a 3-2 victory against Erith & Belvedere on Tuesday night.
Beckham, who is the son of Manchester United legend David, joined the Bees on loan earlier this month. The right winger, 20, is on the books at his dad's MLS side Inter Miami and produced a series of impressive displays in Florida to catch Brentford's attention.
The youngster's Bees bow came in their London Senior Cup clash. Beckham's dad was one of the 553 fans in attendance at Park View Road to see his second oldest son make his debut in England and Brentford recover from two goals down.
Beckham would've been excited to be named among the substitutes, but his team didn't enjoy a great start to the evening. Erith & Belvedere - a semi-professional club based in Welling, Kent - took the lead in just the third minute thanks to Lewis Chambers' strike.
Lucias Vine equalised for the visitors before Bradley Ryan re-established Erith & Belvedere's lead. Then, in the 55th minute, Beckham came off the bench. It didn't take long for the famous son to make an impact, whipping in a dangerous cross from the right.
Yet Kyreece Lisbie, the son of former Premier League striker Kevin, failed to make contact with the delivery. Lisbie and Beckham then both went close with headers, but the hosts remained defiant in front of what is said to be a record attendance at Park View Road.

Brentford kept pushing and got their equaliser through Lisbie in the 87th minute. Five minutes were added on and Brentford made them count by finding a winner, as Michael Olakigbe's long-range shot was deflected past goalkeeper Adam Molloy.
It was a dramatic end to the game - giving Beckham a debut he will never forget. The midfielder was snapped by Brentford after impressing in the MLS Next Pro for Miami's second team - scoring two goals and providing 10 assists in 20 appearances this term.
Beckham has spent the last couple of months training with Brentford and completed a loan move when the transfer window opened. The emerging talent is not expected to stay in London for too long, as Miami's new MLS campaign starts next month.
"I'm very proud and very happy to be here," Beckham told the club's website. "I came here at the start to keep fit during the off-season. The chance then came to come on loan here and I've never been so excited. It was a fun season [in the USA] and there were a lot of ups and downs but I'm excited to come here and see what I can do."
Brentford B coach Neil MacFarlane added: "We've been absolutely delighted with Romeo since he arrived with us. He came to us from Inter Miami with the aim of working with us during their close season.
"Romeo has applied himself unbelievably well, he's really bought into the culture and the group, which he has become a big part of. I love his standards and the way he conducts himself on and off the pitch."
