  • Micah Richards is the fun guy in the studio during UEFA Champions League coverage
  • During Paris Saint-Germain's 3-0 win over AC Milan, he did Kylian Mbappe's celebration
  • He suffered a wardrobe malfunction but did not notice until Kate Abdo pointed it out to him

Micah Richards is a fun guy but will learn to be calm henceforth after he suffered a wardrobe malfunction in the studio during the coverage of UEFA Champions League games last night.

Gameweek three of the Champions League played its second round of games as defending champions Manchester City fought back to beat Young Boys.

Paris Saint-Germain put behind their matchday two embarrassing 4-1 defeat to Newcastle United and thrashed Italian side AC Milan 3-0 at the Parc des Princes.

Per BBC Sport, Kylian Mbappe opened the scoring in the first half before Randal Kolo Muani and Kang-in Lee added the others in the second half. Ousmane Dembele had a goal ruled out.

Micah Richards suffers wardrobe malfunction

Mbappe hit his trademark celebration of a jump and folded arms after scoring for his team on the UCL night, and it was what put CBS Sports Golazo analyst Richards in trouble.

The former Manchester City star recreated the celebration; there was a little cracking sound but he did not notice what had happened before Kate Abdo pointed it out.

He sheepishly laughed his way to his seat, much to the amusement of Abdo and Thierry Henry, who were with him when the incident happened. Now, he will need a new uniform.

Micah Richards professes love for Messi

It seems Richards reserves his dramas for PSG games. As Sports Brief reported, Richards professed love for Lionel Messi on the opening day of the Champions League.

He interrupted Guillem Balague, who was at Parc des Princes for pitchside commentary and screamed, "Messi, I love you." The Argentina captain left the club after two years and joined Inter Miami.

Richards condemns Richarlison's Neymar tattoo

Sports Brief also reported that Richards slammed Richarlison for tattooing Neymar's face on his back after revealing his body art against Liverpool.

Richards understood the idea of having the face of football legend Ronaldo Nazario on his back but disagreed with having the face of a teammate inked on your body.
