John O’Shea: ‘It was very special and I’m very proud’

John O’Shea ended his professional career to appreciative cheers and a guard of honour as he made his final appearance as a late substitute in Reading’s 0-0 draw with Birmingham City at the Madejski Stadium.
The Irishman came on in the last minute yesterday, the final act in a glittering career during which he won nearly everything possible since his Manchester United debut in 1999, capturing 14 trophies during his 12-year spell at Old Trafford.
