Manchester United legend Edwin van der Sar backs Sergio Romero to show big game 'experience' in Europa League final

Edwin van der Sar has backed Manchester United's Europa League keeper Sergio Romero to deal with the pressure of the final.

With a man of the match performance in a World Cup semi-final Romero is by far one of the more accomplished back-ups in football. With rumours swirling around the future of No 1 David de Gea at Old Trafford, Romero's chance to shine comes at the perfect time.

The Argentina international has kept two clean sheets when called upon to start in the Premier League, most recently putting in an outstanding display at Southampton to secure a 0-0 draw.
