Brazilian connection: Beckham poses for pictures with Kaka, his former team-mate at Milan, and Pele ahead of the match

Beckham and Pele embraced and chatted while excited fans took pictures on their phones. The former England captain was a team-mate of Kaka during the first of his loan spells at Milan in 2009.

Beckham was sent off against Argentina when playing for England in the last-16 of the 1998 World Cup, but judging by his sons' choice of shirt, time has proved a great healer.

巴西情结：赛前，贝克汉姆与自己的前AC米兰队友卡卡及贝利拍照合影。

贝克汉姆与贝利友好相拥，亲切聊天，而热情的粉丝则忙着在旁边用手机拍照。英格兰前队长在2009年短暂效力AC米兰期间，曾和卡卡成为队友。

贝克汉姆在1998年代表英格兰出战世界杯时，在对阵阿根廷的16强赛中被红牌罚下，最终英格兰也止步16强。但现在从他儿子们的球衣选择来看，时间已经抚平了他那时的伤痛。
