“That’s the first penalty shoot-out I’ve ever won,” Ferguson told Sky Sports after claiming the crown for the second time.



“When we missed the penalty kick (from Ronaldo) we thought we were in trouble but I thought we deserved the win.



“We had the best chances. In the second half they had more control but in extra time we were better.



“It’s a fantastic achievement.



“I’m delighted for my players. I think this has the making of my best team.”
