'That's the worst tackle I've seen since Roy Keane tried to castrate me' - Southgate

Ever the professional, the Cork native laughed off the joke.

REFLECTING ON SERGIO Aguero’s unsavoury stamp on David Luiz during today’s FA Cup semi-final between City and Chelsea, Gareth Southgate recalled a similar incident from his past.

When the two were competing against one another for Manchester United and Crystal Palace respectively, Keane was red-carded for a violent stamp on the man he now regularly appears alongside as a pundit.

When the ex-England defender laughingly brought up the incident today, pointing out its similarities to Aguero’s indiscretion, Keane saw the humorous side of the situation and apologised half-heartedly to Southgate.

    @Pol Mlp: Tony Kelly out injured was a big disadvantage for Clare on top of Colm Galvin having to retire. That said we had some notable retirements also & didn’t use Hoggie.

    After the all Ireland defeat imo it’s important we have a good league to rebuild confidence and possibly blood some more of the U20’s from last year & the year before.
