Gary Neville believes that Marouane Fellaini's three-match ban for head-butting an opponent is correct.

Gary Neville has backed the Football Association's decision to give Marouaine Fellaini a three-match ban for head-butting Stoke City's Ryan Shawcross.

The Everton midfielder apologised after the incident on Saturday, which was not spotted by match officials at the time.

The Sky Sports News pundit said: "They're battling with each other, fighting and it happens - but he was out of order and I am not surprised he has accepted his ban as he has gone too far. A really poor one and he got three games and he deserved it.

"I resent the way in the last 24 hours it has been made out that Stoke are the sinners and Shawcross is at fault, this goes on all over the pitch every single game and it is just the way it is and Fellaini has over stepped the mark, but the other bits are just football."

Fellaini's manager David Moyes also believes that the Belgian deserves to be banned.
