Richards and Carragher both donned the shirts of Man City and Liverpool their former clubs as they took part in a penalty shootout.
But the crowd was left less than impressed as they took turns trying their luck from 12 yards. The fans started jeering: “What the f**king hell was that?”.
However, Redknapp and Richards were able to see the funny side.
Former City star Richards was even targeted as fans yelled “Just a s**t Gary Neville” at him.
He did also pull out a Mario Balotelli-inspired shirt that read: “Why always Meeks.”
The shirt was a reference to Balotelli’s iconic celebration during City’s 6-1 thrashing of United at Old Trafford in 2011.
And fans were quick to vent their frustrations at the club for allowing the pair’s shenanigans to occur on social media.
One United fan fumed: “Nothing says starting the season seriously like letting Micah Richards and Jamie Redknapp do a penalty shootout at Old Trafford at half time. No words Manchester United.”
