Donaldson bursting after Cambridge hold Man Utd

Cambridge United striker Ryan Donaldson was thrilled to secure an FA Cup replay at Manchester United.

The winger was man-of-the-match as the League Two side held the Red Devils in their fourth round tie, and was full of praise for his team-mates following the hard-earned result.

"It was hard! Really hard. We got penned in but they have world class players and a draw is a dream result for us," he said.

"They had two great chances in the second half and we will take a draw any day. It's going to be surreal at Old Trafford but we have been to Wembley twice last year - not bad is it?'

"I thought it was quite an even game in terms of chances. We will take this. It's incredible. We've played at Wembley before and the gaffer has been saying all season that this cup run can give us those moments again.

"How many people will we take to Old Trafford? 15,000? I don't know. How many tickets we get we will sell out I am sure."
