John Arne Riise revisited a somewhat traumatic memory of an evening encounter with former Liverpool striker, Craig Bellamy.
The controversial Welshman had drunkenly confronted his teammate at the time with a golf club following a disagreement about a karaoke night, a moment the 41-year-old admitted could have ended his playing career early had it escalated further.
It’s quite something that, despite the incident between the pair, both players had a big hand in our 2-1 victory at the Camp Nou that season.
