Micah Richards left his CBS Sports colleagues completely at a loss for words with an unexpected two-word remark about a Bayern Munich supporter.
On Tuesday, football enthusiasts enjoyed one of the most exhilarating nights of knockout European competition in recent memory, with Arsenal taking on Real Madrid and Bayern Munich clashing with Inter Milan in the Champions League quarterfinals.
Surprise outcomes marked both fixtures as the Gunners demolished Los Blancos 3-0 in London, while Inter Milan edged Munich with a slim 2-1 advantage over the two-legged tie.
As usual, CBS Sports analysts Kate Scott, Jamie Carragher, Thierry Henry, and Richards provided live coverage of the games, and viewers were left stunned by one particular comment from Richards after Bayern Munich’s loss.
Even though Bayern veteran Thomas Muller managed to pull one back late in the game, the German side again slipped in the tie after Italian midfielder Davide Frattesi netted a goal.
During the analysis, CBS Sports broadcast a clip showing a Bayern Munich fan accidentally dousing her face with water in reaction to Inter’s decisive late winner, prompting Richards to deliver an off-color remark.
Observing the footage, the ex-Man City player succinctly stated: “No comment.”
Following his remark, Richards turned his attention to his desk notes, while his co-hosts Scott and Carragher visibly cringed and then swiftly transitioned to a commercial break amid awkward laughter.
One viewer commented: “Micah Richards is about to get sacked on-air, there’s no way he actually said that.” Another remarked, “He can’t be fired for simply saying ‘no comment’—everyone understands the implication!” A further fan added, “You’re an absolute TV legend! Finally found your calling, because let’s be honest… we all knew football wasn’t it, big Meeks!” Yet another admirer praised the entire panel, stating, “These guys are just too hilarious—such a fun group that finds a way to laugh about everything and be even funnier.”
The popular CBS team is set to return live on Wednesday night when Barcelona hosts Borussia Dortmund, while Unai Emery’s dynamic Aston Villa take on Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes.
