Micah Richards walks off the CBS studio after brutal moment with Inter Milan's Denzel Dumfries live on air
Micah Richards was forced to walk out of the CBS studio after Denzel Dumfries left him shocked with an embarrassing comment live on air.
On Wednesday night, Inter Milan shocked football fans as they scored three goals to draw the first leg of their Champions League semi-final clash with Barcelona 3-3 in Spain.
Inter star Dumfries took home the official Player of the Match award after scoring two goals in the thrilling match.
But the defender's most viral moment from Wednesday night came after the final whistle, as he brutally embarrassed popular pundit Richards during his post-match interview live on CBS Sports.

CBS Sports popular panel show with Kate Scott, Jamie Carragher, Thierry Henry and Richards has well-known for their light-hearted and fun post-match interviews with some of the biggest stars in the Champions League.
One question the pundits always ask their guests, is to pick which of the four of them was their personal favourite, and Thursday was no different.
Except this time, Dumfries decided to aim a hilarious dig at Richards to bring his confidence levels back down to Earth after he named the former Manchester City star as his favourite pundit.
Replying to Richards' question, Dumfries said: "Oh this is tough, You, you are my favourite. But remember what Marcus said, your suit was a little bit too small!"
After being completely caught off guard by Dumfries' comment, Richards immediately pauses his celebrations, turns around, and walks out of the CBS Sports studio in complete silence, leaving his fellow pundits in stitches.
Dumfries' joke comes just two weeks after his Inter Milan teammate Marcus Thuram criticised Richards for his suit during an interview following the 2-2 draw (4-3 aggregate win) against Bayern Munich at the San Siro.
The France International explained to the panel why he often refers to Henry as 'uncle' before complimenting the Arsenal legend's suit, leading to Carragher and Richards asking for his opinion on their outfits for the show.
“What about me and Micah?” quipped Carragher.
“Both yeah, Micah a bit tight,” Thuram joked to the amusement of the panel who all burst into laughter.
“Why is it always you, Micah… I’m sorry,” the Inter Milan striker added.
