Evra: Everybody's happy
Patrice Evra hailed United's 1-0 victory over AS Roma as "a great
result" but warned there's still a long way to go before the Reds
sew up qualification.
Wayne Rooney sealed the win in the 70th minute to send United top
of Group F after just two games.
"Everybody's happy," Evra told MUTV after the match. "We played
this game with a lot of professionalism and I'm delighted to win
1-0."
The Reds have now won six of the last eight games by the same
scoreline and certain sections of the media are beginning to doubt
United's firepower. Evra, however, isn't concerned by the narrow
victories.
"Of course I'd prefer to score more goals, but we've won 1-0 and
you still get the same number of points no matter if the score is
1-0, 7-1 or 2-0. It's still three points and I'm happy with that.
I'm also very happy for Wayne Rooney. He's worked hard to come back
from injury and it's great to see him score. It was a great result
tonight."
The Frenchman refused to target the final in Moscow, preferring to
focus on the next match.
"If you want to quality then you have to win every game at home.
The win in Lisbon was a bonus, tonight was a good result, and now
we have to make sure we keep winning at home. It's a good start but
we have to make sure we continue to work hard. Qualifying isn't
easy and now we have to focus on Dynamo Kyiv away."
