"Gary Neville claimed Idrissa Gueye "snapped" when the Everton midfielder received a bizarre red card against Manchester United in the Premier League on Monday. Senegal international Gueye was sent off in the 13th minute at Old Trafford, where the Toffees were drawing 0-0 with opponents aiming to win a fifth successive home match. The 36-year-old was dismissed five years to the day since serving a one-match suspension for Paris Saint-Germain for his previous red card,"
""He has snapped," former United captain Neville told Sky Sports. "He has slapped his own teammate. There is not much in it. How much venom was in that slap? He has been sent off for that. Was it a little slap or a proper whack? There is no doubt a hand comes out to the face but it didn't look too much. They might have had to send him off purely because there is a strike to the face.""
Idrissa Gueye was sent off in the 13th minute after an altercation with teammate Michael Keane in Everton's match at Old Trafford. Gueye appeared to raise a hand to Keane's face while goalkeeper Jordan Pickford intervened to restrain him. Referee Tony Harrington issued a red card following the incident, and commentators questioned the severity and intent of the contact. The dismissal came five years after Gueye's previous red-card suspension. Despite being reduced to ten men, Everton took the lead through Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall’s curling 29th-minute strike.
