Rio Ferdinand praises "never say die attitude"

Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has praised the attitude of his teammates for battling back to claim a point at Stamford Bridge earlier today.

The Red Devils trailed Chelsea 3-0 in the 50th minute, only for two penalties from Wayne Rooney and header courtesy of Javier Hernandez in the remaining 40 minutes to rescue a point for Sir Alex Ferguson's side.

"3-0 down....it ain't over until its over....that's how we roll, Man Utd never say die attitude...away fans were immense again," Ferdinand wrote on Twitter.

United now trail rivals Manchester City by two points at the top of the Premier League table.
