Sky Sports presenter Kelly Cates hilariously struggles to keep control as Roy Keane and Gary Neville argue

Sky Sports presenter Kelly Cates had her hands full following Arsenal's win over Manchester United as she tried to maintain order in the studio.

The Gunners ran out 3-2 winners over the Red Devils at the Emirates on Sunday, a result which leaves them five points ahead of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table, with a game in hand over Pep Guardiola's side.

Keane was unhappy with United's performance as he slammed their defending, singling out Aaron Wan-Bissaka for criticism in how they conceded Arsenal's first goal.

But as the clock ticked down on Sky's live coverage, former teammates Keane and Neville began to bicker over NFL.

Cates was promoting Sky Sports’ NFL action that was coming up later on Sunday evening. The Cincinnati Bengals were about to kick off against the Buffalo Bills, while the Dallas Cowboys’ clash against the San Francisco 49ers was taking place later on.

Neville butted in saying that Keane "loves" American football, but the former England international added that he 'doesn't get it'. That led to Keane saying '49ers all the way' before Cates was forced to tell the pair to shush as everyone in the studio laughed.

Eddie Nketiah struck in the closing moments against Manchester United to claim a dramatic 3-2 victory for the Premier League leaders.

City had earlier seen off Wolves 3-0, with the prolific Erling Haaland netting a fourth hat-trick of the season.

That put the ball in the Gunners’ court and they were tied 2-2 against United in an entertaining encounter that looked like costing them some of their advantage at the summit.

Nketiah had earlier equalised after Marcus Rashford’s fine drive took his post-World Cup tally to nine goals in as many games. Bukayo Saka put the hosts ahead in the second half, before Lisandro Martinez opened his Red Devils account with a looping header.

That looked to be enough to secure a point but, with time ticking, Nketiah’s improvised finish – flicking out his right boot and turning home Martin Odegaard’s deflected shot from close range – sparked joyous celebrations.
