Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira were the best of enemies at Man United and Arsenal

Daily Mail  

Every sport's got one. The two captains pursued each other relentlessly on the pitch and knew they were in 'wars' Both captains enjoyed huge success and their rivalry epitomised the two clubs' long rivalry The pair hold a mutual respect having since worked together in a media-based capacity MAJOR HONOURS Keane at Man United Premier League x 7 FA Cup x 4 Champions League x 1 Intercontinental Cup x 1 Vieira at Arsenal Premier League x 3 FA Cup x 3 Quite often that antipathy spilled over, a natural consequence of the heated, intense rivalry between the two teams. Such were the pressure levels that the match boiled over six minutes from the end, as Keane and Patrick Vieira clashed, prompting a face-off between the two sides which the referee did well to defuse. Goals: Vieira, Bergkamp Booked: Pires, Reyes Manager: Arsene Wenger Manchester United: Carroll; G. Neville, Ferdinand, Silvestre, Heinze; Fletcher, Keane, Scholes; Ronaldo, Giggs, Rooney. For all the grappling in the middle of the park, the late tackles, the choice words exchanged, no moment encapsulated Keane and Vieira's rivalry quite like the infamous tunnel spat at Highbury in 2005.
