WHAT HAPPENED?
According to Daily Mail footage, the Irishman got into a heated confrontation with an Ipswich supporter at Portman Road after the 1-1 draw.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
This is not the first time Keane has been involved in a dispute with a football supporter as the former United player was assaulted by an Arsenal fan at the Emirates last year. The culprit was found guilty of headbutting the ex-Sunderland manager in what was called a "gratuitous and senseless act of violence" in court.
Getty Images SportDID YOU KNOW?
Keane managed Ipswich between April 2009 and January 2011, winning just 34.6 per cent of his 81 matches in charge of the then-Championship side. Previously, Keane admitted that when he was booed by the club's fans back in late 2010, it spurred him on.
WHAT NEXT?
Keane, a regular Sky Sports pundit, will likely be covering a United game soon. Meanwhile, his old side drew 1-1 with Ipswich on Sunday in the Premier League.
