Vidic: We passed a test of nerves against Inter

Manchester United FC may have advanced to the last eight of the UEFA Champions League but goalscorer Nemanja Vidiæ admitted that nerves nearly got the better of them against FC Internazionale Milano.

“We played well until we scored the goal,” said Vidiæ, whose powerful header brought his sixth goal in all competitions this season. “After the goal we got a little bit nervous because we knew how important it was not to concede and Inter had two good chances to score in the first half that they didn’t take. The manager didn’t tell us to play defensively but we knew that if we lost a goal it would change everything and it is difficult against Italian teams because they are very good tactically. I think we played better in Milan as we didn’t give them any chances there.”
