England came from behind and were seconds away from heading to the airport before Jude Bellingham’s spectacular bicycle kick and Harry Kane’s header saved their Euro 2024 dreams.

Still, Neville referred to them as “woeful” in his post-match analysis, while Keane stated “how many excuses are we going to find?”

But before the game got underway, Neville – who earned 85 caps for England – praised the high quality that exists within the squad.

Keane, 52, said: “Why are you putting yourself down?”

While Wright chimed immediately after and said: “Yeah, we’ve told you about that”.

Despite Neville’s legendary career that’s seen him lift 18 trophies with his boyhood club, he’s regularly played down his achievements.
