England women's coach Phil Neville has ripped into the Cameroon football team, after a controversial 3-0 win in their round-of-16 tie at the Women's Football World Cup in France.
Two Video Assistant Referee (VAR) decisions went against the African outsiders during the match and they twice threatened to walk off the pitch in protest.
On top of that, Cameroon made several questionable tackles and one of their players was accused of spitting on England winger Toni Duggan.
Neville, who played nearly 20 years of professional football, including 59 games for England, said he was "ashamed" by what happened.
"I came to this World Cup to be successful, but also to play a part in making women's football globally more visible, to put on a show that highlights how women's football is improving," Neville said.
"But I sat through 90 minutes today and felt ashamed. I'm completely and utterly ashamed of the opposition and their behaviour.
"I've never seen circumstances like that on a football pitch and I think that kind of behaviour is pretty sad. Think of all those young girls and boys watching.
"This is going out worldwide. I didn't enjoy it, the players didn't enjoy it.
"My players kept their concentration fantastically, but those images are going out worldwide about how to act, the young girls playing all over the world that are seeing that behaviour. For me, it's not right.
"My daughter wants to be a footballer and if she watches that, she will think, 'No, I want to play netball'.
"I've got to tell the truth and say that I've never seen behaviour as bad as Cameroon's on a football pitch before. It was like being a kid, when you lost and you went home, crying, with the ball.
"I didn't enjoy the 90 minutes, I just felt sad. I can't gloss over it and fudge it, I have to tell the truth."
Neville added that if any of his players acted that way, they would never play for England again under his watch.
"Arsene Wenger once told me the team mirrors the manager - their team mirrored the manager. If that was my players, they would never play for England again.
"I feel sorry for the referee. The decisions were correct, she was trying to protect football by not giving a penalty or a sending off.
"I admire her unbelievably."
Cameroon qualified for the round of 16, when they beat the Football Ferns 2-1 in their final group match on Friday.
When asked why his players refused to play, manager Alain Djeumfa refuted those claims, but later admitted he was close to pulling them off the pitch
"I think that is wrong," he said. "I think that is your feeling - the players never stopped and refused to play.
"I think my players were examples and occasionally, when you are in this state of shock, you can lose your cool.
"I don't think the players ever really refused, and I think they showed professionalism and I take my hats off to them for that."
England now face Norway in the quarter-finals and they could be without captain Steph Houghton, who was stomped on during the match.
