We’ll need to consult the legal team.

ROY KEANE ignited a debate for Gary Neville with a provocative comment about Alfie Haaland.

The iconic former Manchester United players, along with Ian Wright and Jill Scott, convened in The Overlap studio, where their discussion pivoted to a critical moment in Manchester City’s triumph over Arsenal.

Mikel Arteta’s team narrowly fell 2-1 at the Etihad, marking a significant shift in the title race with City now leading on goals scored, both clubs equal on points and goal difference.

During the match, Gabriel dodged a red card despite headbutting Pep Guardiola’s star, Haaland, who netted the decisive goal.

The Premier League explained why the Arsenal defender wasn’t given a red after their physical clash intensified in the match’s dying minutes.

This incident occurred just seven minutes before the final whistle when Gabriel tackled Haaland in the center of the pitch.

Haaland appeared visibly frustrated, forcefully pushing the Brazilian defender away.

The Arsenal player then seemingly headbutted Haaland, prompting City players to argue he should have been sent off as they deemed it a violent act.

Despite their protests, both the referee and VAR dismissed the claims, resulting in both players receiving yellow cards.

Haaland maintained his footing throughout the incident and, reflecting on it post-match, credited his resilience to his father’s stern advice against going down.

As the panel reviewed the incident involving the “old school” striker, Keane couldn’t help but add humor to the conversation, teasing Erling’s father.

Roy quipped: “His dad would have gone down. I am certain of it. Apologies.”

Host Neville quickly interjected, stating: “We might need to involve our lawyers, considering how things unfolded last time.”

This lighthearted jab references the long-standing rivalry between the two, stemming from a notorious incident in 1997 when Alfie accused Keane of diving, despite Keane suffering an ACL injury.

Four years later, Keane sought retribution with a knee-high tackle, leading to a red card and ultimately ending Alfie’s career.

After several unsuccessful attempts to return, Alfie was forced to retire permanently.
