Idrissa Gueye and Michael Keane Settle Differences in Boxing Match

They settled it once and for all.

Michael Keane and Idrissa Gana Gueye have settled their feud once and for all with a training ground scrap, following Gueye's controversial red card at Old Trafford.

The Senegal international was shown one of the most shocking red cards in Premier League history after he slapped Keane following a disagreement.

Gueye's red card put Everton down to 10 men with 77 minutes still to play, however, a miraculous performance from David Moyes' side saw him win at Old Trafford for the first time as an opposition manager.

The result puts Everton level with Man United and ahead of struggling Liverpool in the Premier League standings, just three points off the top four.

Following the match, the 36-year-old released a statement apologising to the club and his fans.

"I want to apologise first to my team-mate Michael Keane," he wrote on his official account.

"I take full responsibility for my reaction. I also apologise to my team-mates, the staff, the fans and the club. What happened does not reflect who I am or the values I stand for.

"Emotions can run high, but nothing justifies such behaviour. I'll make sure it never happens again. UTT," he added.

Despite Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall claiming the incident was already behind them at full-time, the pair have squashed it once and for all with a training ground scrap.

On Thursday afternoon tofffee's striker Thierno Barry posted a video of the playful boxing fight on Instagram.

The footage has quickly gone viral, and appears to show there is no bad blood with the pair smiling and embracing after the brawl.

This would echo David Moyes' post match comments, with the Scott claiming he was not upset with either party for their involvement as it 'showed they cared'.

He told the media: "I like my players fighting each other, if someone didn't do the right action. If you want that toughness and resilience to get a result, you want someone to act on it."
