Van Gaal praises Man United spirit

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal praised his side's "unbelievable team spirit" in fighting back from a goal down to beat Preston North End.

Goals from Ander Herrera, Marouane Fellaini and Wayne Rooney sealed the 3-1 FA Cup fifth-round win, and despite another below-par showing Van Gaal was happy with the performance.

"I was reasonably satisfied with the first half," said Van Gaal. "We didn't give anything away and it's always difficult in such games especially with the long balls and the fights between the central defenders and Kevin Davies."

"It's always difficult but we only gave away one chance, I believe, in the first half. Then, in the second half, their goal was a little bit unlucky because it deflected but, after then, we showed an unbelievable team spirit again. We changed the shape and that was the solution."
