Wayne Rooney has expressed his delight and honour at becoming the captain of Man Utd for the Roma game. Rooney was in charge for the second time in his Old Trafford career.
"It was fantastic to captain the team, and I think it was a good result and a good performance," said Rooney.
"We'd love to win the Champions League this season," he added.
"Hopefully we can go one step further than last year and reach the final."
Of the youngsters Rooney said: "It's a great experience for them to get Champions League football under their belts.
"I'm sure it will have helped them a lot. (Gerard) Pique, (Jonny) Evans and Simmo (Danny Simpson) did really well. They have great ability and bright futures ahead.
"As a team I thought we did very well and got off to a great start, putting them under a lot of pressure. Gerard Pique scored a great goal and we had a couple of chances in the second half to win it. We kept going after they scored and in the end a draw was probably a fair result."
