    That tunnel row was amazing!!! Keane apparently said to Neville “why you telling me” after Viera spoke to him.
    Saying that though, he then went on to scream abuse at Viera in the tunnel, that had both teams in there, the subs, officials I think and also the kids that walk out with them. Viera and Keane are both legends in their own right. I think Keane is a bell end, I’m Arsenal til I die but those two playing against each other was amazing!!!
    I just went back and rewatched it. Literally a child who’s about 12, stood there whilst Keane screams abuse at him 😂
    kid seems unfazed, probably used to it growing up in London probably 🤣
