Manchester United hero Peter Schmeichel has taken a swipe at Brazilian winger Antony.

Schmeichel, who won the treble with United in 1998-1999 and also represented Manchester City, was critical of Antony's behavior against Brighton on Thursday.

The winger was given a yellow card after he lashed out at Alexis Mac Allister during the second half of the Albion's 1-0 win.

Schmeichel told Premier League Productions: "I don't like the reaction, this is crazy and he is a lucky, lucky boy staying on the pitch because that's a red card, there's no doubt about it.

"You cannot do that. And then he reacts like this. You cannot do that as a Man Utd player you have to behave yourself. This is revenge, you don't do that, you cannot do that in a game of football.

"[Erik] Ten Hag is very disappointed and that is even more so than the game being lost with one of his players reacting like that."
