  Emotional Beckham quits as captain
[ 2006-07-03 08:47 ]

六年前,25歲的貝克漢姆從英格蘭臨時主教練皮特·泰勒手中接過了隊長袖標,六年后,在英格蘭世界杯1/4決賽里點球負于葡萄牙隊的悲情時刻,31歲的貝克漢姆宣布辭去英格蘭足球隊長一職。北京時間7月2日下午,英格蘭國家隊舉行了新聞發布會,隊長貝克漢姆宣布自己將辭去國家隊隊長的職務。 “我覺得現在是交出隊長袖標的時候了,我們將進入麥克拉倫(新任主教練)時代。”在說這些話的時候,小貝已經淚流滿面,“我已經實現了我的夢想,我為我能夠戴上隊長的袖標,成為英格蘭隊的隊長感到非常自豪……”

The England midfielder, on the verge of tears, read a statement announcing he would step down with the change of manager, as Sven-Goran Eriksson hands over to Steve McClaren. 

Beckham said former caretaker England manager Peter Taylor had given him "the greatest honor of my career ... and fulfilled my childhood dream," by appointing him as captain in November 2000 for a friendly with Italy in Turin.

But he continued: "I feel the time is right to pass on the armband.

"As we enter a new era under Steve McClaren, it has been an honor and a privilege to have captained our country and I want to stress that I wish to continue to play for England.

"And I look forward to helping both the new captain and Steve McClaren in any way I can.

"I came to this decision some time ago but I had hoped to announce it on the back of a successful World Cup. Sadly, that wasn't to be.

Beckham had been in tears after being substituted due to injury early in the second half of Saturday's agonizing defeat by Portugal in a penalty shootout.

It followed a Group B campaign and a second-round victory over Ecuador, secured with a Beckham free kick, in which England had never really got into gear.

"Our performance during this World Cup has not been enough to progress further and both myself and all the players regret that -- and are hurt by that more than people realize," said the 31-year-old.

Beckham thanked the players, Taylor, Eriksson and the coaching staff for their support during his time as captain, along with the media and the England fans.

"For me it has been an absolute honor.

"Finally, I have lived the dream," Beckham said, now with his voice faltering with the emotion.

"I am extremely proud to have worn the armband and to have been captain of England. And for that I will always be grateful."

Beckham, wearing a navy blue England suit then got up and left the media center at England's training ground at Buhlertal, near their Baden Baden hotel.
