Manchester United legend Gary Neville criticised Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Hugo Lloris for his mistake against Liverpool during his commentary on the Premier League match on Sky Sports Football on Sunday evening (6:17pm, March 31, 2019).

Towards the closing stages of the game between Liverpool and Tottenham at Anfield on Sunday evening, Lloris made a mistake that led to the Reds’ second and winning goal.

Mohamed Salah’s header on goal was not that powerful, but instead of being able to claim it easily, Lloris struggled, and the ball went in off Spurs defender Toby Alderweireld.

United legend Neville was on co-commentary duty on the match for Sky Sports, and the former England international defender was not pleased with 32-year-old France international goalkeeper.

Neville said about Lloris’s mistake right after Liverpool scored during his co-commentary on Sky Sports Football on Sunday evening (6:17pm, March 31, 2019): “It’s poor handling. He has got to get hold of that.”

The former United defender added: “Shocking from Lloris. He has to do better.”

Meanwhile, Graeme Souness has given his take on Moussa Sissoko’s miss for Tottenham against Liverpool.

The 29-year-old former Newcastle United midfielder missed a very good chance to put Tottenham 2-1 up when the game was still 1-1.

Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk was brilliant in the way he closed down on Sissoko, but the Frenchman should have still finished off the chance.

Souness, who started his professional club football career at Tottenham before making his name at Liverpool, said on Sky Sports Premier League on Sunday evening (6:43pm, March 31, 2019): “You can see. With every touch, he is getting more and more nervous. ‘I don’t want to be here, I don’t want to be here’. That could have possibly won them the game.”
