Roy Keane had his Sky Sports colleagues in hysterics ahead of the Manchester derby on Sunday.
Keane was alongside Gary Neville, Jamie Redknapp, Micah Richards and presenter Dave Jones at the Etihad. As part of the build-up to the game, they were looking back at some classic moments from the fixture.
And the Irishman was not impressed with Richards' celebration after he set up Sergio Aguero to score against Manchester United in a 1-6 victory for Manchester City at Old Trafford in October 2011.
Richards found himself free in the United penalty area and crossed for Aguero to tap home as City went on to record one of their most famous wins over their rivals.
Rather than congratulate the goalscorer, the former England full-back celebrated with his teammates as though he had scored himself.
He regards the assist as his favourite moment from his appearances in the Manchester derby.
Keane, however, was not as impressed.
The Irishman was asked for his assessment of Richard's celebration. "Very childish," he said, which drew a big laugh from his colleagues.

Keane was also asked to speak about his favourite Manchester derby moment.
The former midfielder played in 14 Manchester derbies during his time at Old Trafford, and he was more often than not on the winning side.
In fact, Keane never lost to Manchester City during his time with United and won 10 games against them.
Man City had yet to be taken over by Abu Dhabi and were much more modest opposition during the 1990s and early 2000s.
The Irishman's favourite moment in the fixture was from his first Manchester derby in November 1993, when Man United came from two goals down to beat their rivals 3-2 at Maine Road.
Keane scored the winning goal in the game. He arrived late into the penalty area to tap home a brilliant cross from Denis Irwin, a 'proper full-back', as he called the Irish defender during Sky Sports' coverage on Sunday.
