  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Beckham was spotted waving at supporters ahead of his club's Club World Cup last-16 tie against PSG, which they lost 4-0. He had surgery on a long-standing wrist problem last week and clarified ahead of the game between his former and current club that it had been a success.

  WHAT BECKHAM SAID

  Beckham told DAZN: "It's fine. It was an old injury that needed surgery but it's all good. To be honest it is quite an emotional match for me. Obviously, the team that we own is playing probably the best team in the world right now. Who would have thought?"

• THE BIGGER PICTURE

  PSG proved far too good for Inter Miami in the match, with a Joao Neves brace, Tomas Aviles own goal and Achraf Hakimi strike putting the Parisians 4-0 up before half-time. There were no further goals in the second half, as Beckham's outfit exited the competition.
