Jamie Carragher called out by Celtic hero's dad on live TV for callous Atalanta scoreline prank
Jamie Carragher was once again at the wind up as he tried to catch Peter Schmeichel off guard over Celtic.
The legendary Manchester United goalkeeper was on pundit duty for CBS Sports Golazo - but this time not for his son Kasper and the Hoops - but he is never far away when it comes to Brendan Rodgers' side as he nailed his colours to the mast once again by keeping up to date on the early kick-off in Bergamo by watching the action on his phone live on air.
While in an interview, Carragher back in the studio tried to be mischievous and catch his fellow pundit off guard by shouting over his interview that the Serie A side had found a way past his son to take the lead. The big Dane was having none of his banter however, and called him out before they shared a laugh with Peter admitting he had his phone out of shot to keep in touch with every kick as it happened in Italy.
Carragher: "Peter, Peter 1-0 Atalanta."
Schmeichel: "You are kidding me? (Carragher in fits of laughter), is that right? Jamie, why do you do stuff like that? Seriously!"
Carragher: "I just saw you had stopped watching your phone. You can never take your eyes off the game. It only takes a second to score a goal as Brian Clough famously said."
Schmeichel: "That is very, very true but how do you know I stopped? I had the phone here (out of shot). You don't know what I do."
Carragher: "You are right actually. I don't normally watch your interviews. "
The exchange brought a laugh out of both Schmeichel and Carragher as well as his fellow studio guests. It would be the legendary football figure that would have the last laugh as his son and his team-mates picked up a famous away point.
It means Celtic have four points from three games so far in the Champions League and put themselves in a healthy position going into back to back home games agianst RB Leipzig and Club Brugge. A night and day defensive display from Dortmund just a couple of weeks ago.
