ROY Keane hid his face as he broke cover today after a fan allegedly headbutted him during the Arsenal and Manchester United match.
Video showed the ex-Manchester United skipper, 52, in a confrontation inside the Emirates Stadium during the closing moments of the game yesterday.
Keane broke cover this morning as he emerged for a walk with his two dogs.
The United legend, wearing a white t-shirt and baggy grey shorts, used a black jumper to cover his face as he walked along a residential road.
It comes after his Sky Sports colleague Micah Richards was seen pinning a man against a wall as footage of the altercation emerged last night.
Both pundits are said to have been left shaken following the incident.
