The Sky Sports studio erupted as Kelly Cates roasted Gary Neville to finish the show

Kelly Cates delivered a brutal parting shot at Gary Neville following the conclusion of the broadcast of Liverpool's 7-0 victory over Manchester United.

Liverpool ran riot as they smashed Man United 7-0 at Anfield on Sunday, producing a destructive second-half display to record three league points.

The hosts scored SIX of their seven goals after the break, with Cody Gapko, Darwin Nunez, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino all getting on the score-sheet.

Naturally, the pundits who were on duty had a lot to go at following the game, with Graeme Souness and Neville clashing over Liverpool's showing.

Souness claimed that Neville said that he 'thought Liverpool played badly', which the Man United legend denied, insisting he thought the visitors 'were the better team' in the first-half and the second-half was more about his old side's 'capitulation'.

With that all being said, Cates referenced Neville's claim as she wrapped up the show with a ruthless line, which went down well with Souness and Jamie Carragher.

"Liverpool sharp off the tee at Anfield this afternoon," she said. "They've beaten Manchester United by seven goals to nil, it's a record for this fixture. Mo Salah is now Liverpool's record Premier League goalscorer... and they didn't even play that well, goodnight."

But Neville got the last word as he weighed in: "And you're live on Liverpool TV."

Fans on social media loved Cates' little dig at Neville.

One Twitter user wrote: "Fantastic final line!!! Best sports presenter on tv!"

A second tweeted: "She is class, the way she mocked Keane earlier in the program about Ted Lasso was great as well."

A third added: "Kelly Cates with a last minute winner."

A fourth said: "what a woman, a true professional and still mischievous. Love it!"

Another commented: "Some front from Gnev considering it’s a utd commentary duo most weeks."

Liverpool's demolition of Man United moves them above Newcastle United to fifth place, just three points behind Tottenham with a game in hand.

As for Man United, they remain in third place with their goal difference taking a battering.
