Rare Neville strike rescues United

Man Utd 1 Basle 1

With his depleted team trailing to Christian Gimenez’s first-half opener, Neville let fly with a left-footed volley eight minutes after the interval after Swiss side Basle failed to clear a bouncing ball in the box.

A deflection off Thimothee Atouba saw the ball nestle in the corner of the net, much to Neville’s stunned surprise.
