Gary Neville names Marc Overmars as toughest opponent in career

Gary Neville has named Marc Overmars as the toughest opponent he faced during his career at Manchester United. Neville highlighted their intense battles, particularly during matches against Arsenal, which were significant rivalries in the Premier League. Overmars, known for his speed, was a key player for Arsenal, helping the team secure the Premier League and FA Cup double in 1998. He scored the winning goal against United at Old Trafford that season, contributing to Arsenal's title victory by just one point. Neville noted that Overmars posed a unique challenge due to his pace and ability to create scoring opportunities. This made matches against Arsenal particularly difficult for Neville, who prided himself on his defensive organization.
