Jamie Carragher aims dig as Gary Neville begins contentious pundit gig with Richard Keys

Jamie Carragher reignited his rivalry with Richard Keys by asking Gary Neville to greet his "big mate" in the beIN Sports studio.

Former Manchester United defender Neville is working for the Qatari broadcaster during the World Cup and has been widely criticised for taking up the role. The Middle Eastern country's human rights record and stance on LGBT rights has been the subject of intense scrutiny in the lead-up to the tournament, so the pundit has had to defend himself.

Neville's role means he has swapped sharing the Sky Sports studio with Carragher to work alongside Keys until the Premier League season resumes in late December. Keys left the British broadcaster in 2011 after making derogatory remarks about match official Sian Massey, while further sexist comments were also leaked.
