Gary Neville took to Twitter almost immediately after Danny Ings opened the scoring in Southampton’s 1-0 win over Liverpool.
The Manchester United legend – in a joyous mood – uploaded a video of himself while watching Boris Johnson’s message to the nation.
Neville, whose beloved Red Devils can move top of the Premier League with a win over Burnley, was clearly delighted with the England international’s goal.
You can see his four-word reaction to Ings’ lobbed effort below.
It’s no surprise to see Neville so delighted with the ex-Burnley striker’s goal.
After draws against Brighton, West Brom, Fulham and Newcastle, Liverpool have conceded a lot of ground in the Premier League title race.
In that time, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men have surged up the table following a ten-game unbeaten run, which includes eight wins.
The Red Devils haven’t lost since Arsenal defeated them on November 1st.
Neville’s tweet will presumably infuriate a section of the Anfield faithful.
Conceding a crucial goal to a player who you allowed to leave is bad enough.
The Liverpool supporters certainly don’t need their noses rubbed in it by a Manchester United icon.
In what now looks like a mouthwatering encounter, Jurgen Klopp’s side welcome Solskjaer’s men to Anfield on January 17th, where it’s all to play for.
