The duo were covering Chelsea’s 3-0 win over Rennes in the Champions League.
On a video posted to CBS Sports’ Twitter account, Carragher says to Scott: “Remember those days?”
Scott jokingly hit back, saying: “Jamie couldn’t even name top five women’s players so don’t tell me you watched me play!”
Carragher replied: “I’ve got the number one – Mia Hamm.”
In another clip posted later that evening, the former Liverpool defender goes onto compare Chelsea right-back Reece James to Lionesses star Lucy Bronze in a bid to win Scott over.
He said: “When he got down the side and put that cross in it just reminded me of Lucy Bronze at her best when she was playing right-back.
“Christie Rampone as well and Brandi Chastain as well, these women footballers were very similar when he struck that ball in.
“Wendie Renard. My favourite centre-back is actually Kadeisha Buchanan.”
Scott replies: “Canadian centre-back, I’m impressed, we’re mates again now.”
The former Gunners captain has won the Women’s FA Cup SEVEN times with the North London club.
And The Sun revealed in September that she is set to replace Sue Barker as the host of A Question Of Sport.
