Jamie Carragher was living his best life at the Signal Iduna Park in Germany on Wednesday.
The Liverpool legend is usually in the CBS studios on Champions League nights alongside Kate Abdo, Micah Richards, and Thierry Henry.
However, he was given a rare away day as he was sent to Germany to cover the semi-final between Borussia Dortmund and Paris Saint-Germain – which is live on talkSPORT.
Carragher wasted no time in getting involved in the local culture, which involved sinking pints with Dortmund fans.
He said: “We’re at the Signal Iduna Park with the Dortmund fans. They absolutely adore me!
“Let’s get a picture… and I’m going to get a pint to cool me down, to calm my nerves down for the big game.”
He was every football fan as his beer arrived and proceeded to try and neck it. In all honesty, we’re a bit jealous.
Carragher was replaced in the studio by the legend that is Alessandro Del Piero.
During their Tuesday night coverage, Abdo teased who it will be: “Who is going to be replacing Jamie Carragher in the studio? Find out after the break.”
“Whoever it is won’t be better than me,” Carragher confidently claimed with a cheeky grin.
After the break he asked who was replacing him and Abdo replied: “Everybody, breaking news, [Alessandro] Del Piero for Carragher tomorrow.”
