Manchester United defender Chris Smalling has said that his side were "up against it" after they went a goal down inside the opening four minutes of their Champions League clash with Wolfsburg this evening.
However, a Juan Mata penalty and a second-half goal from Smalling secured a 2-1 comeback victory for Louis van Gaal's side at Old Trafford.
"We started up against it after conceding a goal. But we created a lot of chances and deserved the win. We didn't give them too many chances. We created some ourselves which gave us a deserved victory," Smalling told BT Sport.
"We knew they played with two wingers which gave us space, Anthony Martial's pace used that well."
The result means that Manchester United move up to second place in Group B, with three points from their opening two fixtures.
