United lost to a late Dirk Kuyt goal which Ferguson felt may have been offside.

"I haven't seen a replay yet but you don't always get decisions here anyway," the United manager said. "We never got anything from the referee. I felt we dominated the game and at least deserved a replay, though I was still trying to win it at the end – that's why I put Javier Hernández on. We played well, hit a post – it's hard to believe we lost when we were so comfortable."
