Rio Ferdinand Hits Back at Jamie Carragher After Man United’s 3-2 Win Over Liverpool

The exchange shows how club loyalties plus new media keep their rivalry in the spotlight.

Overview

  • Ferdinand, who posted a response on his YouTube channel Monday, said Carragher’s message was really harsh following Sunday’s 3-2 result that confirmed United’s return to the Champions League.
  • Carragher had replied on X to Ferdinand’s “Caption this” throwback by mocking him for appearing in others’ goal photos and for filming mixed‑zone chats with players.
  • In his video, Ferdinand said Carragher spat his dummy out, used the phrase spitting feathers, and claimed the former Liverpool defender used to carry his washbag and boots with England.
  • The throwback image showed United celebrating Mikaël Silvestre’s 2004 winner with a dejected Carragher in the frame.
  • The dispute is the latest flare-up in a years-long feud over Ronaldo, the Saudi Pro League and the Africa Cup of Nations, and Carragher has not replied to Ferdinand’s video.
