Sir Alex Ferguson admitted his Manchester United side had been made to work
hard for their 2-0 Worthington Cup win at Burnley.

Diego Forlan and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer scored a goal in each half to book a
place in the quarter-finals.

But Burnley made a real fight of the fourth-round tie at Turf Moor before
United's superior finishing power told.
"I thought we showed a lot of resolution and fight against a team that gives
everything," said Ferguson.

"We had to work hard, they were a bit unlucky and made it a real cup tie.

"I sensed in the second half we were getting more penetration and creating
chances and it kept them stretched a bit, and doing that I didn't worry as
much as the first half.

"It was a good competent performance, we had to battle but we did that well
tonight."

Centre-half Wes Brown added on Sky Sports 2: "We knew it was going to be
tough and we would have to grind it out and get the win.

"They are playing at home, it was always going to be difficult. We had a lot
of young players but we got together and played how we know we can do and
got the win."
