Javier Zanetti bows out at San Siro in winning style

Javier Zanetti bows out at the San Siro in winning style ahead of his retirement having played a part in Inter Milan's 4-1 victory against Lazio.

Javier Zanetti has bowed out in winning style in his final Inter Milan appearance at the San Siro, having played a part in the club's 4-1 victory against Lazio tonight.

The 40-year-old veteran, who came on as a substitute in the 52nd minute, received a standing ovation from supporters inside the stadium in his 863rd game for the Nerazzurri.

Zanetti announced earlier this week that he will retire from football at the end of the season following 19 trophy-laden seasons at Inter.

One supporter inside the San Siro entered the field of play during injury time to hug the former Argentina international, before being ushered off the pitch by stewards.

Zanetti joined inter from Banfield in 1995, going on to win five Serie A titles, four Coppa Italias, one Champions League trophy, one UEFA Cup and also the FIFA Club World Cup, while also becoming his country's most capped player of all time.
