Roy Keane targets Alf-Inge Haaland again after Norway's loss

Roy Keane has once again taken a shot at Alf-Inge Haaland, Erling Haaland's father, during a podcast discussion. The former Manchester United captain questioned Alf-Inge's recollection of Norway's World Cup qualifying loss to England, suggesting his judgment might be impaired by alcohol.

During an appearance on the Stick to Football podcast, Roy Keane referenced England's 2-1 victory over Norway in a World Cup qualifier. When the topic of Alf-Inge Haaland arose, Keane made a pointed remark about the former player's supposed habits.

Keane's comments were a direct jab at Alf-Inge, implying that his fatherly claims about Norway's performance were not credible. This latest exchange continues a notable and lengthy animosity between Keane and the Haaland family, stemming from their playing days.

The context for Keane's remark was Alf-Inge Haaland's prior assertion about his country's performance in the match. Keane used this as an opportunity to reignite their well-documented feud, making a jest at Alf-Inge's expense concerning his alleged consumption of alcohol.

💬 SideLine Take

Keane's continued jabs at Alf-Inge Haaland feel more like a tired personal vendetta than insightful punditry. It’s a low blow that detracts from the actual football discussion.
