Roy Keane testifies against Arsenal fan accused of headbutt
- Former football star Roy Keane testified in court about being headbutted by an Arsenal fan.
- The incident took place at Emirates Stadium during Keane's work as a pundit.
- The accused, Scott Law, is on trial for the alleged assault.
Roy Keane, a former Manchester United player, was surprised when he was headbutted during a football match. He was with Micah Richards, a fellow Sky Sports pundit, walking to analyze the match when the incident happened. Keane said he was hit unexpectedly while at work. Richards tried to calm the situation, but the person who headbutted Keane ran away. Keane suffered bruises on his chest and arms. The person who headbutted Keane, Scott Law, was scared of Keane because of his reputation for making hard tackles during his football career. The incident occurred after Manchester United's winning goal was disallowed by VAR. Keane was heading to the pitch for analysis when Law confronted him. Law claimed he acted in self-defense, fearing Keane was going to attack him. Keane was more concerned about the incident than missing the final two goals of the match. The court heard that Law made obscene gestures towards Keane and Richards before the confrontation. Law's defense argued that Law did not intend to assault Keane and acted out of fear. The trial is ongoing and is expected to conclude soon.
