The Manchester United-Arsenal poster is a good excuse to dust off the archives of the most intense rivalry in the English championship in the 2000s.

While waiting for the kick-off of the shock of the 28th day of the Premier League, let's rewind one of the most publicized altercations in football history: Patrick Vieira versus Roy Keane.

It was on February 1, 2005, in the tunnel of Highbury. That day, referee Graham Poll had to calm down the young Vieira and his Irish opponent.

Decades later, Vieira and Keane smoked the peace pipe. On the set of the British channel ITV, they told the behind-the-scenes of this brawl that marked an entire generation. Better to laugh about it.

All's well that ends well.
