Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was "very happy" with his players despite Manchester United's goalless draw with AZ Alkmaar in the Europa League on Thursday.
The Red Devils did not manage a shot on goal in Holland and David De Gea was forced into a couple of good saves by the hosts.
But Solskjaer believes his side played well and picked up a valuable point away from home.
He told BT Sport: "Very happy with the boys. We came away with a good performance, it should have been three points of course because it's a nailed-on penalty. You can't even discuss it.
"It's a team who have beaten Feyenoord 3-0 away from home. This is a good performance and a good point against a good opponent on a bad surface.
"If you get your draws away from home and win the home games, you'll be fine."
