Liverpool duo Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher star in a new film which pokes fun at Sir Alex Ferguson and Gary Neville.
Manchester United manager Ferguson has been portrayed as a whisky-loving drunk while club captain Neville is labelled a rat who hates Scousers.
Fifteen Minutes That Shook the World is a sideways look at what went on in the Liverpool dressing room at half-time in the 2005 Champions League final before the Reds fought back from 3-0 down to AC Milan.

And in one scene a Sir Alex lookalike phones a player (who is not unlike Neville) to celebrate Liverpool's misery.
The player has the name 'Rat Boy' on his back and sings a song about hating people from Liverpool.

When Rafa Benitez's side turn the game on its head by winning on penalties, the Fergie character, called McTaggart, knocks back a bottle of whisky with Manager of the Month but not as good as Bob Paisley' written on it.
The 43-minute comedy, by Liverpool playwright Dave Kirby, is sure to rile the Red Devils while Carragher and Gerrard, who have cameos in the production, attended the premiere this week with Benitez.
