David Beckham and Ryan Giggs both made appearances as former teammate Gary Neville waved farewell to Manchester United at Old Trafford on Tuesday night.

About 42,000 fans saw Juventus emerge a 2-1 winner in Neville's testimonial game which marks the final chapter in his playing career before a move into the media.

And the 36-year-old is hoping his first task will be to see his old club beat Barcelona in the Champions League final.

"The most important thing for this club now is to go and win that trophy on Saturday," said Neville, who spent 20 years at United.

There was no mention of Giggs' off-field problems, after the Welsh player was named by a British MP as the footballer who had sought to prevent details of an alleged affair being published, as the veteran set up Wayne Rooney for United's only goal.
