Some Liverpool fans on Twitter have criticised Gary Neville for his comments on Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane last night.

Kane earned a controversial penalty during Tottenham’s 2-0 win against Aston Villa away from home at Villa Park in the Premier League on Sunday evening.

In the second half, Villa defender Matty Cash was adjudged to have brought down the England international.

Former Manchester United defender Neville was on co-commentary duty for the match on Sky Sports, and this was his take on the incident:

Some Liverpool fans on Twitter feel that Neville let off Kane easy, suggesting that if Mohamed Salah had done the same, then he would have been hammered.

Below are some of the best comments:

There is nothing anyone can do about it now. While Villa will feel aggrieved at the incident, Spurs were 1-0 up at that stage and did look to be the better team.

The win has enhanced Spurs’ chances of finishing in the top four of the Premier League table this season.
