Manchester United’s response to going 3-1 down has been embarrassing. I have never seen anything like that in any game of football,’ Neville said while on-commentary on Sky Sports.

‘I don’t think the scoreline it’s the problem, it’s the response to going 3-1 down that’s been the biggest problem for me. They have absolutely thrown the towel in.’
