Lisandro Martinez Gets Revenge on Jamie Carragher After Man Utd 4-0 Sabah

Manchester United's Lisandro Martinez burns Jamie Carragher live on CBS Sports following the Red Devils' win over Sabah

Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez finally got his revenge on Jamie Carragher , years after the Liverpool defender claimed he was too small to succeed in the Premier League.

Martinez was lambasted by pundits, most notably Carragher, after struggling in Man Utd’s infamous 4-0 away defeat to Brentford. The Argentina defender, who is 5ft 9in tall, had only signed for the Red Devils weeks earlier and was still adjusting to English football following his £48 million move from Ajax.

Carragher confidently asserted that Martinez at United “can’t work”. Four years later, though, and Martinez is still a Manchester United player and celebrated his fourth goal on his 113th appearance for the club after scoring against Sabah in the Champions League on Thursday night.

Martinez subsequently made a live TV appearance on CBS Sports - the show Carragher works on alongside Thierry Henry and Micah Richards.

The South American didn’t miss his opportunity to exact revenge on the Anfield hero.

Former Man City and England defender Richards asked his usual question: “Who’s your favourite on the show?”

Martinez responded: “You know guys, you know… Thierry Henry.”

Carragher then said: “What about the defenders? Defenders look after defenders.”
