Referee Peter Bankes halted the north London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham in the first half due to an IT issue in the ground. A stoppage of five-and-a-half minutes took place for the problem to be resolved, as Gary Neville lashed out at the decision while on commentary for Sky Sports.
"This is absolute nonsense," the [Manchester United](https://www.express.co.uk/latest/manchester-united-fc) icon said. "One of the most important games of the season. We're now two or three minutes stopped and players having to warm up again and reset. Absolute shambles. I'm absolutely fuming, I can't believe the game would be stopped for this long. Such an important match. Absolute joke."
