Top 5 Moments that made footballers cry on the pitch (+Videos)

#3 David Beckham – PSG

David Beckham shed a tear as he left the pitch after playing what could be his final game as a professional footballer as Paris Saint-Germain beat Brest 3-1. On 82 minutes, with the realization that his glittering 847-game career was winding down, the raw emotion of the moment got the better of the most iconic player of his generation. Given a standing ovation by the near 45,000 strong capacity crowd in the Parc des Princes, Beckham hugged teammates and opponents before being substituted by Ezequiel Lavezzi. When he returned to the field after the final whistle, his team-mates picked him up and threw him in the air.
