Sir Alex Ferguson is overjoyed with Manchester United's 2-1 victory at Cluj, and praises the way his side defended in Romania.

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson was pleased with his side's victory over Cluj in the Champions League on Tuesday.

A brace from Robin van Persie saw the Red Devils come from a goal down to win 2-1 in Romania in their Group H fixture.

"I've got to be pleased with the possession and the concentration was really good tonight," Ferguson told ITV Sport. "Apart from the goal we defended very well.

"They hit so many really good, telling crosses into our box that kept us under pressure all the time, kept us on edge.

"David [De Gea] made a good save at the end so I've got to be pleased. Coming away from home in Europe is never easy and as I said before the game, they've a good record here."
