Slumped in Monaco

Zenit St.Petersburg 2-1 United
UEFA Super Cup in Monaco

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson is quoted below, and it sums up my view of the match. This was not exhibition football but played as a tough European knock-out tie the sort of matches I relish. Pity Scholes got himself sent off for a silly handball in front of the ref.

"I think we played our best football at 2-0, unfortunately. It was a warm night and so I think my players did OK under the circumstances.

"I thought Tevez was outstanding - probably the best player on the park - and I thought we had the chances to do something in the game.

"But Zenit are a very good team and they have exceptional movement. They'll be a force in the Champions League playing like that."
