Tevez v Neville battle of hand gestures rumbles on


The Carlos Tevez V Gary Neville war of words and hand gestures continued yesterday as both of the childish players refused to grow up in any way.

It all started when Wayne Rooney muttered the witticism ''Miss, you Greasy Argie'' just before Tevez smashed in the controversial penalty to draw Man City level at 1-1 against fierce rivals Man Utd in Tuesday's Milk Cup Semi-final first leg at Eastlands.

Tevez responded to this by doing an impression of the character Shrek from the film Shrek starring Shrek, directed at Rooney.

Eager to get in on any aggravation going, Gary Neville soon piped up and started shouting comments from the touchline....albeit despite him not even being named on the subs bench for the game!.

Neville's wife Nelly explained ''Gary was watching the game at home with me and as soon as he noticed it was about to kick off with a good argument I couldn't contain him!, he just had to get involved....bless him!.....that's why I love him I guess!?''.

When he arrived, Neville started hurling insults directed at Tevez, criticising the surgeon who performed the botched operation on his neck wound, to which Tevez retaliated with disparaging remarks about Neville's poorly grown moustache!, one fan heard him say this in his Spanish accent, ''Look guys, theres an Ian Beale lookalike on the touchline and is name isa Gary Neville!''.

A visibly angry Neville took this remark to heart and couldn't think of a witty re post so simply stuck 2 fingers up at the gloating Argentinian ugly man, not realising that in Spanish this signal means ''Last night your mother told me you were adopted!!''. A shocked Tevez could be seen borrowing a mobile phone from a supporter in the crowd to phone his mum to see if this was true!.

Once she convinced him he was not adopted, he got back to the game and almost immediately scored with a headed goal to take City to a 2-1 victory, which once again caused him to celebrate but this time Neville bore the brunt of his mocking comedy, as he produced a comb from his back pocket and started to pretend to comb his top lip where a moustache might be!, whilst shouting ''Hey Gary why don't you grow a real moustache like your mum's got!''.

An upset Neville was then consoled by his Dad who had also been watching the game at home and had felt the need to get involved. Mr Neville (Neville) said ''If you pick on my boy Gary Neville, you pick on me,....Neville Neville''.
