Micah Richards also told the court he 'felt sorry' for Roy Keane after he was headbutted.
ShareMicah Richards told a court he "grappled" with defendant Scott Law during the incident on 3 September
Mr Richards told Highbury Corner Magistrates' Court on Friday he was in "disbelief" at what he witnessed, adding that he "felt sorry for Roy", who he described as a friend. Mr Richards demonstrated the action to jurors by moving his head back and forward and said Mr Keane was hit "more on his jaw" than his face, pointing to his lower jaw."I believe I was saying to him, 'What have you done that for?'"I was basically trying to restrain him until security could deal with the matter.
During his cross-examination of the footballer, Mr Sherrard described Mr Keane as having a "moody sombre appearance", and Mr Richards responded: "I know him a bit differently, but that's how he can be perceived."The court also heard from Mr Law, who was sat beneath the Sky Sports studio during the match and said Mr Keane was "very animated" and "angry" throughout the game.
Mr Law said he then went inside the stadium to go to the toilet and encountered Mr Keane who "collided into him".
