Gary Neville brands Kevin Mirallas 'selfish' after penalty incident

Gary Neville has hit out at Everton's Kevin Mirallas, after the forward took a penalty during Everton's 0-0 draw with West Bromwich Albion.

The Belgian international decided to take a first-half spot kick at Goodison Park, despite Leighton Baines being the club's regular penalty taker, and Neville believes that he went against team orders.

The pundit told Sky Sports News: "If he's done what I think he's done, go against team orders, manager orders, and selfishly taken the ball, it's one of the most despicable breaches of team orders you can possibly have. You do not do that at any cost.

"Leighton Baines, not the most confrontational type of lad, he's the type that has probably said 'go on then, if you're confident'. But what usually happens in dressing rooms is your free kick takers, penalty takers are usually listed."

Mirallas was substituted at half time with a hamstring injury.
