Ferguson present

Former Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson was sat in the stands alongside club owner Malcom Glazer and David Gill, the club’s former chief executive for Wednesday night’s Champions League 0-0 draw at La Liga side Sevilla.

United travelled to Spain for the Champions League first leg last-16 encounter as the Red Devils looked to earn a positive outcome ahead of the second leg clash to Old Trafford.

Second best on the night

However, the Red Devils were the second best team throughout the first half of the clash with Spain international goalkeeper David De Gea required to make a number of top-class saves to keep the fixture open.

France international midfielder Paul Pogba returned from sickness to secure a spot on the Manchester United substitute bench but the side record transfer signing was needed midway through the first stanza when Spaniard Ander Herrera sustained injury.

However, the former Juventus man couldn’t help the away team to get a stranglehold on the clash as the home team continued to attack in search of a first-leg lead to take to Old Trafford in a fortnight.

And Alex Ferguson endured an uncomfortable full 90 minutes as the La Liga side failed to score despite having about 25 attempts on David De Gea’s goal.
