Robbie Keane confronts AP McCoy off-air after jockey’s savage dig at Tottenham icon live on ITV at Cheltenham Festival

AP MCCOY aimed a brutal dig towards Tottenham legend Robbie Keane at Cheltenham Festival.

McCoy was speaking live on ITV when he spotted Keane on the podium for the trophy presentation to Willie Mullins and Tony Bloom after Energumene’s victory in the Queen Mother Champion Chase.

And the jockey, who is a well-known Arsenal fan, couldn’t resist letting loose with a cheeky verbal jab at the former Spurs striker

McCoy said: “Ex-Tottenham player, he’s never been on a winning podium before has he?”

However, Keane in fact won the 2008 League Cup with Tottenham.

And this was a fact he refused to let slide, with McCoy later revealing Keane had reminded him of his 2008 victory off-air.

While Spurs have not been fortunate to pick up another trophy since their 2008 triumph, Keane has been.

After moving over to Major League Soccer, Keane picked up three league titles with LA Galaxy.
