Man Utd legend Keane brands Chelsea defender Luiz 'lazy, mad, cheat'

Manchester United legend Roy Keane has branded Chelsea defender David Luiz "lazy" after their Champions League win at Atletico Madrid.

The Brazilian centre-back conceded a first half penalty after dragging down Lucas Hernandez during a corner.

French striker Antoine Griezmann scored from the resulting spot kick.

Speaking on ITV's Champions League highlights show, he said: "It's madness really. It's a form of cheating.

"Why he's doing it is beyond me. He's lazy and he's letting his team-mates down. He knows himself. There's no need. We see a lot of that going on, so I'm glad he got punished for it. It's a form of cheating."
