Peter Schmeichel left red-faced after being tricked by Jamie Carragher live on-air

Peter Schmeichel was left red-faced after being the victim of a brutal set up by Jamie Carragher on CBS Sports.

Schmeichel and Carragher were broadcasting live from Anfield ahead of the second leg of the Champions League last 16 tie between Liverpool and Galatasaray.

The Reds trailed 1-0 from the first leg in Istanbul, with Schmeichel asking his co-pundit whether it would be a 'breeze' - not for Liverpool to turn the tie around, but for Carragher watching.

Carragher replied: "I'll be absolutely fine. And the reason I'll be absolutely fine is because, when I come on the road with uncle Pete, every time I'm with him, he ends up coming late... I'm always there early, and that's why I'm nice and cool, I'm not flustered. I get here with plenty of time!"

Schmeichel hit back: "Listen, I always want to come early..."

Carragher replied: "Do you?" before Schmeichel realised the X-rated joke he'd accidentally made.

The CBS studio was left in hysterics, with Schmeichel following Carragher out of camera shot in brief embarrassment.

"Oh my God. How do I even go on from that?" he said.

"Hopefully not longer!" studio pundit Micah Richards said.

As the segment came to a close, Schmeichel's son Kasper walked into shot, before stating: "I'm here, mortified, next to him at the moment. Cheers for that!"

While the mood in the CBS studio is usually jovial, that hasn't always been the case this week.

Ahead of Tuesday night's games, Celtic goalkeeper Kasper admitted - while stood next to his father - that may have played his last professional football match due to a serious shoulder injury.

The Dane, who is now 39, has been heavily criticised by Celtic supporters for his performances this season, and revealed that he has been playing through the injury in recent months as it is the 'after-effects' of when he broke his shoulder a year ago.

He hasn't featured in any of Celtic's last five matches, and faces up to a year out of action.

"I could've potentially played my last football game," he said.

"I got the message that it could potentially be the end of my career. By the time I could get back fit I could be plus 40. I'm going to give it everything I can to see if I can get back.

"I'm going to fight, I'm going to try everything I can."
