Inter Miami lost its third straight game on Saturday night and coach Phil Neville was in no mood to take criticism from an opposing coach.
Chicago Fire defeated Miami 3-2 thanks to a 90th minute goal from Kei Kamara, and Fire's coach Ezra Hendrickson said he set his team up to exploit a rocky defence.
'They get a little narrow and always leave the back post,' Hendrickson said about Miami when they are attacked on the wings. Neville was far from impressed when those quotes were put to him.
'That’s bullsh*t really, I honestly think it is because I think you have just got to defend,' he said.
'You think about the first goal, it had nothing to do with the way that we defend. The last goal had nothing to do with the way we defend.'
