Micah Richards reveals he suffered an injury when having sex as Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer left in stitches

Micah Richards left Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer in stitches when talking about how he got injured while having sex.

Richards, Lineker and Shearer were chatting about injuries on their podcast, titled ‘The Rest is Football’.

Whilst speaking about the topic, Richards revealed he got an injury whilst he was having sex, his story left his co-hosts in stitches. You can watch the footage below.

Richards started by saying: “I have but it’s quite sexual, not really for this podcast.”

That was greeted with laughter by both Shearer and Lineker, with the latter saying: “Mostly adults listening. You can’t leave it at that, what do you mean?”

Richards said: “Basically, obviously, I can’t go into detail. Basically, I was yes, I was ‘having fun’ and as I was ‘having fun’, I slipped off the bed and stretched my leg and did my hamstring.

“So I’ve rolled over, but I was totally fine in training. So when I go back to training and the physio’s have asked me what have I done and I just said ‘I’ve just got some pain down my back, I felt it in the game but I didn’t really want to say anything'. They don’t know the truth until now.”

Lineker then said: “Alan, you can't match that!”

Shearer went on to describe his worst injury, he said: “I came away from Highbury once with Tony Adams, six stitches in my eye, seven stitches in my lip. I walked into two of his elbows. I came off worse than he did that day.”

Former England and Barcelona striker, Lineker added: “When I was 19, we played at Anfield and someone knocked the ball into me. My touch wasn’t brilliant, it went back towards midfield, had my back to goal.

“Souness was coming but I knew I was going to get the ball. So I thought ‘I’m just going to get there ahead of him’. I was some naive kid, put my foot out. He went straight over the top, right down my shin. I had to have about six stitches and I was carried off. I learnt a lesson that day to always protect yourself!”
