One of my proudest moments – Wagner revels in Manchester United win
Huddersfield Town beat Manchester 2-1 on Saturday and manager David Wagner was emotional about its significance at full-time.
David Wagner described Huddersfield Town's shock 2-1 win over Manchester United as "one of the proudest moments" in his managerial career.
Huddersfield produced a marvellous performance at the John Smith's Stadium on Saturday, scoring twice in quick succession around the half-hour mark to give United a mountain to climb.
Goals from Aaron Mooy and Laurent Depoitre ultimately proved unassailable in spite of Marcus Rashford's late header, and Wagner was elated after ending a six-game winless run with a famous triumph.
"I said to the players that I wouldn't expect a result, but that I can believe in a result," he told reporters.
