Javier Hernandez praises Manchester United's "fight"

 Hernandez praises United's "fight"

Javier Hernandez has said that Manchester United always "fight until the last minute" after his late goal secured a 3-2 win against Stoke City.

United went 1-0 down after only three minutes through Peter Crouch's goal, and despite Robin van Persie's equaliser, Stoke went into the break 2-1 ahead thanks to Marko Arnautovic's strike.

However, two goals in as many minutes late in the second half completed the home side's comeback.

"We knew Stoke would be a difficult team to play against, but thankfully we kept going and managed to score the third goal to win this game," Hernandez told BBC Sport.

"The spirit at this club is always here - we fight until the last minute in every game."

The win lifted United to eighth in the league.
