Beckham leaves pitch in final home game in tears

David Beckham left the pitch at the Parc des Princes in tears in his last home game for Paris Saint-Germain before he retires from football.

The 38-year-old was substituted in the 83rd minute of Carlo Ancelotti's side's 3-1 win over Brest in Ligue 1 and was replaced by Ezequiel Lavezzi.

However, as the former England international midfielder left the pitch, he was seen shedding tears as teammates surrounded him and hugged him, while Ancelotti also greeted him with open arms.

Beckham announced his retirement earlier this week after a distinguished 20-year career in the game, winning numerous honours with Manchester United, Real Madrid, Los Angeles Galaxy and PSG along with captaining England for six years.

The midfielder's final game will be against Lorient next week.
