Rio Ferdinand disagrees with Roy Keane over Arsenal goal vs Manchester United

Rio Ferdinand has stuck up for Manchester United defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka following criticism from Roy Keane for allowing Eddie Nketiah to get Arsenal up and running during their gripping Premier League showdown on Sunday afternoon.

Nketiah helped settle the scores for the table-topping Gunners with two goals either side of a sublime strike from Bukayo Saka, while Marcus Rashford and Lisandro Martinez netted at the other end. It was a victory that kept Arsenal five points clear at the top with a game in hand on Manchester City.

As for United, meanwhile, it showed them the further progress they need to make to launch their own quest for the title in future seasons. That led Keane to tear into Wan-Bissaka and others while on punditry duties for Sky Sports at the Emirates Stadium.
