Jamie Carragher was left in stitches prior to Manchester City’s Champions League final defeat of Inter Milan last night after fellow pundit Micah Richards was on the receiving end of a sly dig from presenter Kate Abdo.
The former Liverpool man was also joined by ex-Arsenal icon Thierry Henry at the Ataturk Stadium and as CBS Sports began their coverage of the final Abdo gave the three pundits their own individual introductions.
Henry was described as a ‘French World Cup winner’, our former No. 23 was labelled as ‘one of Liverpool’s most famous sons’ before it was Richards’ turn to be introduced to viewers – well, so everyone thought!

The 41-year-old presenter began by saying ‘a man who helped launch a football dynasty and is an icon in Manchester now and around the world…’ before taking a short pause and continuing with ‘the one and only Peter Schmeichel will join us. Micah Richards is here too’.
Carragher burst into laughter alongside the former City defender who also saw the funny side of Abdo’s joke in what really was a quality moment.
Sadly Richards was also smiling at full-time as the Sky Blues lifted the European Cup for the first time ever.
