Fellaini explains celebrating Man Utd goal with Januzaj

Marouane Fellaini explained his goal celebration for Manchester United in victory at QPR.

Fellaini ran straight to substitute Adnan Januzaj after opening the scoring at Loftus Road.

"He hasn't played a lot this season, so I like to look after him," Fellaini told MUTV.

On the goal itself, which Rob Green tried in vain to prevent, Fellaini felt the timing of it was vital.

"It was a good pass, there was good control and a good finish. It was important to score early in the second half because we knew in the end it'd be difficult, which it was. It was a physical game, with a lot of challenges. We had to win the second balls. It was difficult, but we stayed patient. We knew we would score, and we did."
