Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville has said Belgiums Jan Vertonghen cost his team as they lost 1-0 to France in their Round of 16 clash at Euro 2024.

There were no goals in the first half, as both teams held their own in Dusseldorf.

But in the second half, Kolo Muanis late deflected strike off Vertonghen beat Casteels to give Didier Deschamps side victory.

Neville said on ITV: I think Vertonghen will be really disappointed [with the goal], and not just because it gets credited to him as an own goal. He has got to shift up. Kolo Muani doesnt do anything amazing. Hes a little bit scruffy on the turn.

But hes got to shift up. Once youre one or two yards off, thats not unlucky; it falls into the category of poor defending, and he knows that; hes an experienced player. Its a big mistake and he will be devastated.
