Ole Gunnar Solskjaer pays tribute to David de Gea save

Solskjaer pays tribute to De Gea save

Manchester United interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hailed David de Gea's outstanding save during Wednesday's 3-1 win over Huddersfield Town at Old Trafford.

United conceded in the latter stages of the Premier League match as their poor defensive record continued, but the visitors almost levelled the scores in the second half through Laurent Depoitre.

De Gea pulled off an acrobatic stop to prevent the striker from scoring, however, and Pogba made it 2-0 three minutes later.

"David's save was the key moment for us," Solskajer told MUTV. "Every team, if you're home or away, will get a chance, because there's quality in every Premier League team. That save must be one of the best I've seen. Probably the best."

United will look to make it three straight Premier League wins when they welcome Bournemouth to Old Trafford on Sunday.
