12. Keane v Vieira

Why did Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira almost come to blows on that fateful night in the Highbury tunnel in 2005? It’s one of the most infamous incidents in the history of the Premier League and the high point of the bitterest rivalry the league has ever witnessed. Paul McCarthy speaks to John Cross (The Mirror) and Tony Pastor (Goalhanger Films) about Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira and how the two legends eventually came together in an atmosphere of mutual respect.
