Micah Richards left Jamie Carragher in stitches after admitting he got to know Edin Dzeko well thanks to spending "a lot of time on the bench" with him at Manchester City.
Ex-City striker Dzeko, 37, showed that he's aged like a fine wine by scoring a sublime opening goal for Inter in their Champions League semi-final clash with arch-rivals AC Milan on Wednesday. An emphatic effort three minutes later from fellow former Premier League star Henrikh Mkhitaryan gave Simone Inzaghi 's side an early 2-0 lead in the first leg which they never relinquished, putting Inter on course to reach the final against either City or Real Madrid.
Post-match, Dzeko was lauded by pundits across the globe for his everlasting class and ex-team-mate Richards knows him better than most. He and the Bosnia and Herzegovina international were often substitutes for the Citizens back in the early 2010s, a fact which Richards was forced to reference, as Carragher couldn't hide his amusement.
