Gonzalo Higuain was left sobbing on the pitch after his playing career ended in brutal style, with Inter Miami crashing out of the MLS Play-Offs with a 3-0 defeat to reigning MLS Cup holders New York City FC.
The striker was filmed hunched over on the turf crying into his hands as not only did he have to come to terms with a brutal exit, but it also condemned his fate after making the decision that it would be his final season. The 34-year-old retires as a legendary figure, winning trophies with Real Madrid, Napoli, Juventus and Chelsea.
Higuain has hung up his boots after enjoying his best season with Miami, scoring 16 goals in 28 games for Phil Neville 's side. And the Argentine stated after the game: "The dream is over and another life begins."
