Michael Carrick's wife Lisa slams Roy Keane for criticising husband

The wife of Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick aired her frustration at ITV pundit Roy Keane on Twitter following the ex-United captain's criticism of her husband.

Keane described Carrick's post-match interview as "flat" following United's 2-0 defeat to Olympiacos in the first leg of their Champions League round-of-16 tie in Greece.

After his comments, Lisa Carrick tweeted: "Roy Keane what a **** says anything to provoke a reaction.. That's all.. Done..."

She later removed the message and said: "Deleted my tweet .. Emotions got the better of me .. Just disappointed."

United will try to overturn their deficit in the second leg at Old Trafford on March 19.
