'Pogba didn't do it on purpose!' - Neville’s penalty criticism questioned by fellow Man Utd Treble winner Cole

Gary Neville’s criticism of Paul Pogba being on penalty duty in Manchester United’s 1-1 draw at Wolves has been questioned by fellow 1999 Treble winner Andy Cole.

The former Red Devils defender hit out the World Cup-winning midfielder for stepping up to the spot at Molineux when Marcus Rashford had previously converted in a 4-0 win over Chelsea.

Pogba fluffed his lines against Wolves, with Rui Patricio beating his effort away, and abuse has come the way of a player who has been a scapegoat at Old Trafford for some time.
