Micah Richards storms off CBS Sports set live on air as Champions League star apologises for interview
MICAH RICHARDS stormed off set during an interview with a Champions League star.
The pundit shared a funny exchange with Inter Milan‘s Marcus Thuram after he helped his side beat Bayern Munich to progress to the semi-finals.
Richards asked the striker why he calls his colleague Thierry Henry uncle – his father Lilian Thuram played with Henry for France.
Thuram explained his reasoning and went on to compliment Henry, saying: “Thierry you have a very, very nice suit tonight.”
Jamie Carragher quickly interjected and asked Thuram about the suits he and Richards were wearing
The pair stood up for Thuram to see, who said: “Both, for Micah a bit tight.”
As usual, Carragher and Henry loved the put down Richards received, with the latter even applauding.
Richards had no words and instead slowly walked off the set.
Thuram followed up his comment by saying: “Why is it always you Micah…I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
Richards replied: “Why always me? I can’t catch a break.”

The CBS Sports panel were also left in stitches over Richards’ pronunciation of Franck Ribery – the former Bayern Munich and France star.
Rather than putting a French flair to Ribery’s name, he’d pronounced it “Rubery”.
The camera panned to Henry, who was pointing to a laughing Kate Abdo.
Henry hit back: “It’s Ribery. Rib-ery.”
