'Capable of saying anything for attention' - Katie Abdo tears into Jamie Carragher on live TV after painfully awkward joke about her boyfriend Malik Scott to leave Thierry Henry & Micah Richards in stitches

On Tuesday, during CBS Sports' coverage of Arsenal's penalty shootout win over Porto, Carragher appeared to joke that Abdo was not loyal "to Malik", in reference to her fiance Malik Scott, in a joke that left both Thierry Henry and Micah Richards visibly stunned. Abdo replied by asking "Why would you even say that?"Subsequent reports seemed to imply that Carragher could well face action over his attempted gag but he did not, and was instead back in the studio for Wednesday's Champions League fixtures, leading Abdo to introduce the panel as a "family".

WHAT HAPPENED?

She said: "After yesterday's road trip to the Emirates, we are back home in our Champions League studio here in London. Good to be here. I am Kate Abdo. This group, we have been together for three-and-a-half-years, I think, and I grew up with a brother, and doing this show I feel like I've gained three more here at the desk. Three more brothers."So let me introduce you to the group again. Thierry Henry, of course, the golden child, can do no wrong, always says the right thing. Sets the example for the rest of us. Can he be intimidating? Yes he can, but he is the big brother we all look up to and aspire to, Thierry."Then there is the middle child, Jamie Carragher, chip on his shoulder, capable of saying anything for attention. Does he go too far sometimes? Absolutely. Does he apologise? Yes he does. But all of us have that one annoying family member that we still love and accept."And then there's little bro! Loud but loveable. Micah Richards. Easy to pick on, impossible not to love. And everybody's favourite. And like a good family, we stick together. Another day, another show."<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">Another HIT @kate_abdo intro 🥲❤️ <a href="https://t.co/SeyhgMfeGU">pic.twitter.com/SeyhgMfeGU</a>— CBS Sports Golazo ⚽️ (@CBSSportsGolazo) <a href="https://twitter.com/CBSSportsGolazo/status/1767991414518845705?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 13, 2024</a></blockquote>

WHAT ABDO SAID

CBS Sports has often been praised for their laid-back presentation as Henry, Richards, Carragher and Abdo routinely banter with each other. It appears that they have all agreed to move forward together, however, instead of dragging the ex-Liverpool defender over hot coals.

THE GOSSIP

The Champions League is at the round-of-16 stage, meaning there will be plenty more games for CBS' group of pundits to analyse. Carragher may well want to bite his tongue the next time a joke pops into his head, however.
