Gary Neville has called for a major rule change at international tournaments following Euro 2024.
Neville was part of ITV's broadcast for its coverage of the Euros this summer.
Upon returning home from Germany, he made a worrying claim about Harry Kane following his campaign.

And on the latest episode of The Overlap - brought to you by SkyBet, Neville was asked what changes he'd made to future tournaments.
The Manchester United legend said he would scrap extra-time, explaining: “I do like the idea of getting rid of extra-time.
“I think it’s been a disappointment in extra-time.”

Ian Wright weighed in: "What would you do, go straight to penalties after the game?"
To which Neville replied: "Yeah. Force the result.
"It’s worked, actually, I think domestically in the Carabao Cup."
Roy Keane, however, proposed his own suggestion, adding: "Just have the extra time, just bring it down to ten minutes each way."

Neville said: "It feels like my career went a lot to extra time because out of the eight tournaments I was at, I think seven games out of eight tournaments went to extra time.
"It just felt like extra time was a large part of my career just because of England - it wasn’t a lot of times, but it just felt like it."

At Euro 2024, five matches went to extra-time, with only two games being concluded before a penalty shootout.

England scored in extra-time against Slovakia to prevent a shootout, having gone all the way against Switzerland.
And Spain beat Germany in extra-time as Mikel Merino scored his side's winner.
Neville's idea was put in place at this summer's Copa America as a penalty shootout immediately decided a winner, forgoing extra-time - except for the final, which Argentina won in extra-time.
