Man Utd boss Ferguson hails Neville after superb performance

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson was delighted with the performance of skipper Gary Neville in last night's victory over AC Milan.

Neville, at 35, kept Ronaldinho quiet and also set up two of United's four goals.

"He's a remarkable man," Ferguson said. "When you've been out of the game [with injury] for a year and half it's not easy to come back and play every week at the age of 34 and now 35. He succeeded because of his will to succeed and that's really what Gary Neville is all about."
