Thierry Henry and Jamie Carragher tear into Micah Richards as footage of him playing at San Siro emerges

The CBS Sports Golazo team served up more hilarity on Tuesday night, with Micah Richards getting absolutely panned.

Thierry Henry and Jamie Carragher ripped into Micah Richards after footage of him playing at the San Siro emerged.

The CBS Sports crew, anchored by presenter Kate Abdo, are at the legendary ground for the Champions League semi-final second leg between Inter Milan and AC Milan.

And discussion turned to Richards' appearance at the San Siro, which came during his short stint on loan at Fiorentina in the 2014/15 season.

Richards played 19 times for the Viola, including 10 times in Serie A. He claimed pre-match that he played at the San Siro a "couple of times", shared by both Milan clubs but in actual fact he did not take to the pitch as he was an unused substitute in both meetings.

Footage of Mo Salah scoring the winner away at Inter for Fiorentina in 2015 was played, with Richards commentating over it.

But the former Manchester City man's only "highlight" on the iconic turf was a horribly miscontrolled touch that saw him completely miss the ball in a rondo warm-up.


Henry and Carragher were in absolute stitches, with the latter asking Richards, "How many minutes did you play at the San Siro?”

He replied that it was a "couple of minutes" but the ex England international wasn't quite telling the truth.
