Carlos Tevez was ecstatic after his four-goal haul in the Carling Cup victory over Blackburn.

The South American has been given limited opportunities of late but was still delighted to have produced such a performance for his club.

"I am very proud to score four goals," said Tevez.

"It is the first time I have done it in my career and it is better because it came for Manchester United.

"I have not played very often, so I was looking forward to the game and I am happy with my performance."
