This is mayhem,&#8217; the former Manchester United defender told Sky Sports.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/06\/21\/77474813-12717347-image-a-27_1699304981826.jpg\" height=\"357\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/06\/21\/77475321-12717347-image-a-29_1699305255592.jpg\" height=\"357\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/06\/21\/77474767-12717347-image-a-32_1699305281473.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8216;That is a penalty. He plays the ball but no idea why he follows through like he does. Mad challenge.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He doesn&#8217;t have to put his studs into Fernandez&#8217; shin. In trouble with fact that it&#8217;s high. If you go back to Curtis Jones a few weeks ago that I thought was harsh, this one is a lot worse. Trust me as a defender that is not a natural follow-through.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Definite penalty but it&#8217;s whether it is a red. It&#8217;s red. He could have gone earlier, no sympathy for him, he makes wild challenges, passionate and fiery but he knows what he is doing and it&#8217;s the wildest of challenges. Tottenham fans are going crazy.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Before the sending off, Raheem Sterling had appeared to score an equaliser, weaving his way into the Spurs box before firing past\u00a0Guglielmo Vicario.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The goal was ruled out for offside, but VAR went back to check Romero&#8217;s kick-out on Colwill in the build up.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on the incident, Neville said: &#8216;Raheem Sterling scored but a lot going on 80 yards down the pitch, Romero is on the ground and kicked back of Colwill.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I think Romero is going to go. It hits his hand, comes back and hits it, that isn&#8217;t going to count. I do think Romero is in trouble at the other end. They might lose a goal but Spurs might lose a man.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/06\/21\/77475393-12717347-image-a-35_1699305357575.jpg\" height=\"357\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/06\/21\/77475369-12717347-image-a-33_1699305308408.jpg\" height=\"407\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/06\/21\/77474793-12717347-image-a-30_1699305265584.jpg\" height=\"357\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/06\/21\/77475379-12717347-image-a-34_1699305337168.jpg\" height=\"357\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Because Sterling is goalscorer that goal will be disallowed.
