David was most likely benched because of his time away from the team to play for England. Andriy Shevchenko, who had played for Ukraine on the weekend was taken out of the starting line-up, but eventually made it on the field as a sub.

Despite being on the bench, David was in good spirits, getting into the game and cheering on his team. David has always been one to put his team and the team’s needs ahead of his own, so I’m sure he understands the decision.
