DAVID BECKHAM rushed on to hug and hail son Romeo at the end after the teenager teed up a goal for Inter Miami reserves.
Brooklyn, 23, and Cruz Beckham, 17, also watched as 19-year-old brother Romeo starred in a 2-1 win over Rochester New York FC.

Under-pressure Nev hit back by insisting both had earned their chance.
And Romeo showed his growing maturity with an assist against Rochester.
