Phil Neville has spoken about how being handed a starting place in Manchester United's side for their FA Cup final against Liverpool in 1996 was one of the worst moments of his time at the club.
Gary Neville had been United's number one right-back throughout the course of the season, but come final day at Wembley that season, Sir Alex Ferguson made the call to axe Neville in place of his brother.
And now recalling the moment, Phil has opened up on how all he could think about on that day was his brother being dropped.
"That was my worst moment, I think. It was the 1996 FA Cup final where I started, and Gary was sub,” Phil told Sky Sports.
“I think the boss (Alex Ferguson) had told Gary in the morning and I knew. We used to room together and I really wanted Gary to start at right-back and me at left-back, but obviously we had Denis Irwin.
"There was a period where Denis was at left-back, I was at right-back and Gary was at centre-back a few games before the final... but I'd just been picked for my first ever cup final and all I could think of was Gary being upset and disappointed that he wasn't playing in this big game.
“Gary got on for one minute at the end, which obviously meant absolutely everything!"
With Gary adding: "When I was left out of the 1996 FA Cup final, I remember Tracey coming in on the Thursday or Friday laughing because Philip was playing in front of me! And I don't remember Philip breaking stride to be honest with you."
