Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho said he could not criticize the desire of his players, but admitted that goalkeeper David de Gea had saved his team from defeat after their 1-0 win over Young Boys.

The result was enough to send the Red Devils in the last 16 games of the Champions League.

Marouane Fellaini scored the decisive goal, but Mourinho can not wait to greet his number one, who managed an impressive save to keep the hosts from falling behind the H group.

"The frustration started after two minutes, the goal was to start very strong," Mourinho told RTÉ Sport.

"I think everyone could see that, the fans saw that.

"Even at 0-0 at half-time, the reaction was positive because the team thought they were playing to win but we do not score goals.

"It's really difficult for us to score goals and it's finally a midfielder who scores the winning goal.

"And it's the goalkeeper who makes a phenomenal stop that allows us to play.With the pressure felt by the boys, the fatigue of running so much and intensely, I think that they scored within 15 minutes, it would be very difficult for us to change it.

"We had this [desire and intensity] from the first minute until the last minute. "
