Gary Neville weighs in after FA make decision on assistant ref who elbowed Andy Robertson

Gary Neville says the FA 's decision not to take further action against linesman Constantine Hatzidakis is the "correct call," urging fans and authorities to "move on."

Hatzidakis sparked controversy after appearing to elbow Liverpool defender Andy Robertson during his side's dramatic 2-2 draw with Arsenal on Sunday. At the half-time interval, left-back Robertson walked over to the official to protest against his decisions in the first 45 minutes but was stunningly met with an elbow to his chin before being yellow carded for his angry reaction.

Video footage of the incident soon emerged and fans, pundits and former referees alike weighed in with their verdicts. The FA, however, have confirmed that Hatzidakis will face no further action and Manchester United legend Neville, who was at the game, agrees. "Correct call," the ex-United captain tweeted. "Move on."
