Roy Keane made a scathing comment for Sir Alex Ferguson during the Manchester United v Manchester City match.
Keane was a guest on a quiz on his former teammate Gary Neville's channel 'The Overlap', competing against his expert friend Micah Richards and former City and England female star Jill Scott.
Both teams have to answer some very difficult questions about the Manchester derby ahead of the FA Cup final between the two at Wembley on Saturday.
One question for Keane and Neville is to name the exact score of the first derby they started together, in the 1995/1996 season.

The two were a bit confused and thought the match was at Maine Road, with Neville thinking it was a game in which David Beckham scored a free kick and Sir Alex Ferguson did not attend in 2000. Scott was curious as to why Ferguson wasn't in the starting XI, and Keane, who had been at his best all this time, had a Scots character.
His son is getting married, explains Keane.

Obviously because he was always doing the right thing for Man United but obviously he went to his son's wedding, uh, uh
Keane and Ferguson still do not have a good relationship due to the way he left the club in 2005 - following an explosive interview on MUTV following a 4-1 loss at the hands of Middlesbrough.

The Irishman said he would never forgive his longtime manager.
Ferguson missed just three games during his stellar 26-year tenure at United - one when he went to watch David de Gea play for Atletico Madrid instead of leading the Red Devils in a League Cup draw.
While Keane and Neville made mistakes in the match in question - and even made assistant coach Steve McClaren blush - the score in their first derby against each other was actually 1-0. Advertisement
Paul Scholes scored the only goal of the game after four minutes at Old Trafford.
