David Beckham burst into floods of tears as he played his final ever game as a professional footballer in Paris this evening. With his wife Victoria and their four children watching from the stands, the former Manchester United and Real Madrid star, 38, was given the honour of captaining Paris St Germain during their final home game of the season. After spraying some of his trademark 50-yard passes around the pitch, and assisting a goal, Beckham was substituted to a standing ovation on 81 minutes. Inconsolable, he hugged almost every single teammate and waved to fans as he left the field. And the retirement celebrations began after the full-time whistle as Beckham was tossed in the air by the players in the centre of the pitch.
