Speaking after the match to Sky Sports, Roy Keane said that
though he felt we should have scored more, he was happy with
the performance yesterday:
KEANE ALWAYS WANTS MORE
“Towards the end we had a couple of chances and but for a
couple of sloppy passes we could have punished them a bit
more - but we're happy with the win. You saw their chance at
the last minute and in football you've got to take your
chances, but fortunately Tim made a great save.”

Keane went easy on referee Uriah Rennie saying that his
failure to spot the Giggs incident was understandable:

“To be honest I didn’t really see it properly, I was back on
the halfway line, but we felt it should maybe have been a
penalty, but the referee is human, he’s allowed to make

His only comment on Fergie being sent off was:
“We’re not sure what went on there, but the team got on with
it, we knew what jobs we had to do and just stayed focused.”

Roy also had praise for Ruud:
“He’s not bad, you know! He missed a few before his goal,
but as all top strikers do, he keeps getting into position
and we’re always confident Ruud will get us a goal or two.”
