'I've never seen Roy so nervous' - Richards tells Keane that Erling Haaland's dad is 'waiting for him' after infamous tackle

MICAH RICHARDS teases 'nervous' Roy Keane after Erling Haaland's incredible Premier League debut.

The 22-year-old Norwegian striker scored both goals in Manchester City's 2-0 win over West Ham at London Stadium on Sunday.

Haaland's father, Alfe-Inge, was also in the stands at London Stadium, as were Sky Sports pundits Richards and Keane.

And former City defender Richards couldn't help but joke aboutHarland Seungle's long-running feud with the Irish player. .

While discussing the new Cityzens star's performance in a post-match analysis, former England women's international Karen Carney said Haaland was genetically determined to be a good player because of his family genes.  

She said: He will be an absolute role model.

Super Sunday host David Jones asked, "What did his dad do?"

Richards then went on to say: I honestly have never seen Roy so nervous.

Keane joked with a smile.

It was in his 2001 Manchester match against United against City that Keane practically ended Haaland's senior career with a knee-high tackle.

Keane later admitted that the foul was intentional and was also fined £150,000 and a five-match suspension.

The feud between the two started four years before him, with Haaland, who was playing for Leeds at the time, standing over Keane and midfielder Hardman struggling to the floor after suffering a serious knee injury. It started when I verbally spoke to him when I was lying in Own.

However, despite his problems with his father, Keane praised Haaland's performance against West Ham, stating:

"City's passing and the way they've worn down West Ham who aren't mugs. They toyed with them. But even if the team pushes up, Haaland now poses a threat in the back."

"It will be another challenge for the defenders now that Haaland is behind them. West Ham couldn't handle it."
