Gary Neville has said on Sky Sports Premier League (8:02pm, Mach 12, 2022) that he was disappointed with Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Tottenham suffered a 3-2 defeat to Manchester United away from home in the Premier League on Saturday evening.

England international striker Kane scored for Tottenham from the penalty spot in the 35th minute.

Former United star Neville was on co-commentary duty for the match on Sky Sports, and he was shocked to see Kane lose the ball a number of times in the final minutes of the game.

Disappointing result

In our view, Tottenham will be bitterly disappointed at the final result at Old Trafford.

Yes, of course, Cristiano Ronaldo was in fine form for United.

The Portugal international forward scored a hat-trick.

However, Tottenham were defensively poor and switched off at crucial moments in the game.

And, as Neville notes, senior and experienced players such as Kane kept losing the ball in the final minutes of the game when Tottenham looked to building attacking plays.

Kane was not exactly bad against United, but, in our opinion, he could have done better.
