Former Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Petit caused a scandal on television.

The 54-year-old Frenchman participated in a Sky Sports show and hinted that football legend Pat Rice had passed away.

Surprised by the news, the host soon spoke up:

"I want to share good news. Pat Rice sends his regards. He is alive and doing well."

Upon hearing this, E. Petit quickly began to apologize:

"I’m very sorry. Don’t be mad, Pat. I got confused. Pat, I made a mistake."
