Valencia fullback Jose Luis Gaya was delighted with their 0-0 draw at Champions League opponents Manchester United.
Gaya admits United's physical presence was a concern going into the game.
He said, "It was not easy, they were very strong players physically, I had not seen such a physical team for a long time ... They beat us in height, in strength ... We had to be up for it today in defence and we have been.
"It's a very physical team, all the time I was looking up, towards the sides...
"The players of Manchester United beat you because they are very strong. In defense we have done very well and with much assistance."
