Matchwinner Ryan Giggs admitted Manchester United were made to work for the full 90 minutes for their 2-1 win at Liverpool.
Giggs bagged both United goals, with Harry Kewell pulling one back for Liverpool after 75 minutes. Giggs said: "We had to fight until the end. "We know their fans demand they keep going for 90 minutes and they could have had an equaliser at the end, but it was a great save by Tim (Howard). "We didn't perform in the first half, we didn't keep the ball enough, but we came back." Both Giggs' goals came from the right, rather than from his more accustomed position on the left. He added on Sky Sports: "It gives me the opportunity to cut in more on my favoured left foot. "I was happy with the goals. It is always important when the others play on Saturday and we're playing on Sunday to get a result." United boss Sir Alex Ferguson added: "We were more than hanging on at the end. "It was a fantastic game, an incredible game - and you've got to give full marks to every player on the pitch. "It's a pleasure to be involved in these kind of games. "Liverpool played with a conviction we didn't match in the first half. They had a good start which put us on the back foot. "But we played well in the second half - more like ourselves. "At 2-0 up we started to play well - but it was a nail-biting finish." ________________________________________________________________________ Want to chat instantly with your online friends?
