The 48-year-old superstar spoke to the local fans after the match, thanking them for their support through the years.

I don’t have a lot of time, and I’m not supposed to be on this microphone right now. But I just want to thank you guys for cheering, some of the best fans in the world. Here’s the truth: I’m probably not going to be seen again in a singlet like this anymore. So, I just wanted you to know from the bottom of my heart, thank you very much.
