Sir Alex Ferguson: 'We played like champions'

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has claimed that his side performed like champions in their 2-2 draw at West Ham United in the Premier League.

The Red Devils came from behind twice at Upton Park on Wednesday night as they moved closer to a 20th league title.

"We had to stand up to a lot tonight," Ferguson told Sky Sports News. "It was the play of champions, I thought, in terms of determination."

United, who now need six points from their final five games, continue their campaign on Monday at home to Aston Villa.
