Watch: Carragher hilariously trolls Richards with Kompany comparison
Jamie Carragher aimed a cheeky dig at Micah Richards after Chelsea’s 1-0 Champions League victory over Atletico Madrid.
Olivier Giroud’s sensational bicycle kick gave Thomas Tuchel’s side a crucial away goal ahead of the second leg at Stamford Bridge.
Speaking after the match on CBS Sports, Richards was discussing how underrated Giroud has been throughout his illustrious career.
He argued that the striker didn’t get the credit that he deserved at Arsenal because he was always going to be compared to Gunners legend Thierry Henry.
The former Manchester City defender didn’t have time to finish his point before Carragher interrupted: “It’s like you and (Vincent) Kompany.”
Richards saw the funny side of Carragher’s dig, with the pair then bursting into hysterical laughter.
