14/03/2024

A man has denied attacking former Manchester United midfielder Roy Keane, who was allegedly head-butted during a football match.

Scott Law, 43, of Waltham Abbey, Essex, appeared at Highbury Magistrates’ Court in north London on Thursday and pleaded not guilty to a charge of common assault.

The incident occurred on September 3 last year when Arsenal defeated Manchester United 3-1 at the Emirates Stadium. Former Ireland international Keane was working as a commentator at the Emirates Stadium.

Video on social media appeared to show Keane’s Sky Sports pundit Micah Richards intervening during an alleged confrontation.

Law was granted unconditional bail until a two-day trial at the same court on May 29 and 30.
