Manchester United came up with a shocking win against Liverpool in their third match of the new Premier League season. Having started with a historic low, losing the first two matches against minnows, United had a change in form as they thrashed Liverpool by 2-1.

While the game had many viral-worthy moments, the one that has been doing the rounds of the internet took place before the game. The funny video that is getting increasingly viral is from Sky Sports pre-match show where the legendary trio of Roy Keane, Gary Neville, and Jamie Carragher could be seen talking to the host. The segment was being live streamed from the pitch with players warming up before the match.

The hilarity ensued with Cristiano Ronaldo coming to the sideline to meet his former teammates Neville and Keane. He approaches Neville first and shakes his hand with one friendly arm over his shoulder all while Carragher waits for him next in line to exchange pleasantries.

Cristiano Ronaldo however, totally ignores the former Liverpool player only making a formal nod towards him. He then moves onto Keane and exchanges a few words before heading off to the pitch for halted warm-up.

This whole time, Carragher waits with a smile on his face following Ronaldo’s move and expecting a little chat. That however never happens!

As Ronaldo is leaving, the host says, “Interesting. Nice conversation with you Jamie I thought.”

Carragher with oncoming laughter replies, “totally blanked.” To which the host says, “just like most people do,” and the whole group breaks into laughter.

The video has been watched thousands of times and continues to entertain a lot of football fans.

As for the game is concerned, Manchester United won this match after being embarrassed by Brentford in the previous one. Liverpool is still without a win in the new season of the Premier League. They drew both of their first two matches and losing this one against United.
