Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster praises his team for their defending against Manchester United following their goalless draw with the Red Devils.

Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster has praised his teammates for their defending against Manchester United.

The Hornets left Old Trafford positively following the goalless draw, which means the club have taken four points away from their two fixtures against the Red Devils this season.

"I did not have a lot to do, to be fair. I had one save in the first half, a few bits and bobs here and there, but I have got to say fair play to the lads in front of me, they were absolutely fantastic," Foster told the club website.

"They were getting in front of shots, getting in front of crosses, winning headers, all that kind of stuff, it was nice to see. It is not very often you come to Old Trafford and get to keep a clean sheet so we can be happy with ourselves today."

The point helped to aid Watford's fight against relegation, with the club currently 19th in the Premier League table, but they now sit just three points adrift of safety.

The Hornets will be back in action on Sunday when they host Arsenal.
