Everton skipper Phil Neville sends his support to Great Britain's Paralympic football teams ahead of the men's five-a-side clash against Spain this afternoon.

Everton captain Phil Neville has urged the British Paralympic football teams to make the most of their campaign at the Games in London.

The men's five-a-side squad get their Paralympic tournament underway with a clash against Spain this afternoon at the Riverbank Arena.

"On behalf of everyone at Goodison Park, I want to wish George Fletcher, Michael Barker and Roy Turnham the very best of luck at the Paralympics," said Neville.

"I was lucky enough to make the England squad at three European Championships so I hope both teams make the most of this opportunity and cherish the experience for the rest of their lives."

Great Britain's next five-a-side clash is against Argentina on Sunday.
