Michael Carrick believes patience was a virtue once again as Manchester United were forced to wait until the 86th minute for their winner at Rangers. Wayne Rooney's penalty was enough to confirm United's place in the Champions League knockout stages and, barring a home reverse to Valencia in a fortnight, they will do so as top seeds, avoiding the likes of Barcelona in the last 16.
Carrick claims experience has taught United to remain calm if that early opportunity does not come.
"It was a job well done," said the England midfielder.
"We had a lot of possession, so we tried to be patient and hope it would open up for us.
"We have done it so many times in the past. We always believe we will get a chance.
"Thankfully we managed to get the penalty and that was enough."
