Fergie: Stretford End Suck the Ball Towards The Goal

Sir Alex Ferguson is hoping the crowd can play a part in Wednesday’s game against Bayern Munich, as United look to progress to the Champions League semi-finals.

“Old Trafford has got that suction towards the goal when we are really in full flow and the crowd is really up for it. The ball just seems to get sucked towards the Stretford End,” said Ferguson. “It’s an amazing feeling. There are too many of these moments to mention where we decide games in the last 15 minutes. It’s not always entirely because of the team, it’s because of the fans too. They make it happen. Hopefully that’s the case against Bayern. There’s no better sight. Last minute goals are not by accident. It’s the nature of our stadium, it’s the nature of the way we take risks to win the game.”
