Fans wish CBS Sports was shown in UK as they ‘cry real tears’ at segment savaging Micah Richards
FANS shared their love for CBS Sports once again after a hilarious clip ridiculing Micah Richards went viral.
CBS Sports has built a reputation for mocking members of the panel, which includes Richards, Jamie Carragher, Thierry Henry and host Kate Abdo.
On Wednesday it was Richards’ turn for a bit of teasing as CBS rolled back the years to find an extremely embarrassing moment.
Carragher began the segment by criticising Manchester City goalscorer Micah Hamilton for diving.
But Richards felt that was unwarranted as the defender had made contact with the youngster, and suggested his shirt was pulled.
Carragher ignored Richards and continued the joke, unbeknownst to his colleague.
He said to Richards: “Hear me out. When you think of his name, he obviously looks up to you. Where do you think he got it from?”
CBS Sports then showed a clip of Richards in action for Aston Villa against Stoke in 2015, where the defender dived theatrically in an attempt to win a penalty.
Richards tried to make the most out of the slightest bit of contact with Glenn Whelan by jumping high in the air, and the audacity of his dive left his CBS colleagues in stitches.
Henry responded saying: “What are you doing?!”

CBS then paused on a still of Richards high in the air with Carragher crying out: “What is that! I have never seen anything like that, look where his boots are!”
Fans found the segment hilarious with one responding by saying he was “crying real tears”.
Another added: “There is no sports studio show better than this. Literally crying. Whatever it costs, you need to keep these four together.”
And a third wrote: “I absolutely love this show.”
CBS Sports have won a lot of plaudits for their Champions League coverage with many won over by the camaraderie between the presenter and pundits.
Just a day before Carragher was the victim as Abdo trolled him after he appeared to be out of breath during an analysis segment.
The presenter quipped: “I’ve got an inhaler in my bag, would it help you?”
