Giggs tribute to fellow Man Utd legend Harry Gregg

Ryan Giggs has paid tribute to fellow Manchester United legend Harry Gregg.

Giggs says the Reds were only to happy to play their part in making it a night to remember at Gregg's Testimonial in Belfast on Tuesday night.

"All the lads are really proud to be involved in a night like this for someone who is a hero both on and off the pitch," Giggs told MUTV. "The testimonial is just reward for a great career and a great life.

"It's always nice to come back to Northern Ireland. The fans over here are unbelievably loyal.

"There was a full house tonight even after the disappointment of Sunday and they cheered us on all night. We always get a great welcome over here and we know how much the fans over here love the club.

"The standard [of the game] was pretty decent," added Giggs. "There were plenty of goals and plenty of good goals too. Hopefully we sent the crowd home happy."
