Gary Neville warns against Casemiro appeal as ex-referee disputes Man Utd claims

Manchester United legend Gary Neville has claimed it is too big of a risk for his former side to appeal the red card Casemiro recieved against Crystal Palace last Saturday.

United's midfield lynchpin was given his marching orders after VAR told Andre Marriner to have another look at an incident between Casemiro and Eagles midfielder Will Hughes. Replays showed how the Brazilian had placed both hands around Hughes' neck and Marriner was left with little choice but to send him off.

In turn, the former Real Madrid ace will now miss two league fixtures against Leeds either side of a home clash against Leicester City. However, Casemiro's three-match ban expires in time for the Carabao Cup final showdown against Newcastle at Wembley on February 26.
