Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has described Liverpool's Luis Suarez as a "disgrace" after the Uruguayan decided not to shake Patrice Evra's hand earlier this afternoon.

Suarez approached Evra but didn't offer his hand at the pre-match pleasantries. This led to a tense affair between the two sides, with a reported clash between players in the tunnel at half time.

Ferguson has condemned the actions of Suarez, scored Liverpool's goal in the 2-1 defeat, saying that he should never play for the Anfield club again.

"[Suarez] is a disgrace to Liverpool Football Club. He should not be allowed to play for that football club again," the Glaswegian told Sky Sports News.

"He could have caused a riot. It was a terrible start to the game and it created a terrible atmosphere."

Ferguson saw his side go back above Manchester City with the win, although the Reds have played a game more.
