Man Found Guilty of Assaulting Roy Keane After Arsenal Win
Scott Law, 43, has been convicted of assaulting former Manchester United star Roy Keane. The shocking incident happened right after Arsenal’s 3-1 victory over Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium on September 3 last year. Keane, working as a Sky Sports pundit at the time, was left “in shock” by the confrontation.
Heated Clash Caught on Camera
The altercation broke out just after the final whistle, with social media footage capturing the tense moment. Micah Richards, fellow Sky Sports pundit, stepped in to calm the situation. Witnesses say what started as some “banter” quickly escalated into aggression, triggering the physical clash between Law and Keane.
Court Rules Against Law in Assault Case
Law pleaded not guilty to common assault but a court has ruled otherwise. Keane testified that Law challenged him to “meet him outside” following the heated exchange. The jury found Law responsible for the assault and he now awaits sentencing.
