De Gea happy with 'important' wonder save after Man United scrape Sevilla draw

An understated David de Gea was satisfied with an astonishing save he labelled "important" after preserving a 0-0 draw for Manchester United at Sevilla.

Jose Mourinho appeared to set up for a draw at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan and he got exactly that, with Sevilla controlling the majority of the contest, but unable to find a way past De Gea.

They came closest through Luis Muriel, who saw a point-blank header pawed over the crossbar shortly before the interval.

De Gea had little interest in revelling in his spectacular intervention, admitting that Vincenzo Montella's side perhaps deserved more.
