Intro:

Reaction after Cambridge United held Manchester United to a 0-0 draw in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Friday (23 January), earning the fourth-tier club a lucrative replay at Old Trafford.

Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Louis Van Gaal, Manchester United manager (Q: What did you make of the performance?)

"Cambridge United played very well, very well organised with the heart and they have fought 'til the end. But we could have scored I think, but now we have an extra match. We are still in the (FA) Cup and that's the most important thing, because I have seen a lot of times that big clubs are losing against such opponents."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Louis Van Gaal, Manchester United manager (Q: Why is it that you're playing like the opposition want to play and is there any way to stop it?)

"The pitch is not so good, but that can influence also that you play in another playing style. The opponents are always giving a lot more than normal. And defending is always easier than attacking and then you have seen the referee (Chris Foy). It's always the same. Everywhere I have coached these games - and I have coached them also with other clubs - it's always the same."
