Gary Neville has nowhere to hide after Luke Shaw comments in Man Utd defeat to Brighton

Gary Neville has been left with egg on his face after praising Luke Shaw before the Manchester United star's game-changing handball in the defeat to Brighton.

Shaw was once again named as one of United's centre-backs at the Amex Stadium and had enjoyed a solid game until injury time. But the Englishman conceded a penalty in the 96th minute when he stuck his arm in the air as he challenged to clear a ball in the box.

The ball struck his hand before the Red Devils were able to clear, with VAR Chris Kavanagh sending referee Andre Marriner to check the incident on the pitchside screen. Marriner subsequently awarded a penalty to the Seagulls, with Alexis Mac Allister stepping up to score.
