Manchester United great Rio Ferdinand believes the Champions League second leg against Atletico Madrid is a "great" opportunity for players to respond to recent criticism they've received.
United returned to winning ways on Saturday thanks to a Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick, after their defeat to Man City had prompted condemnation from former players Roy Keane and Gary Neville. Despite the win over Spurs, many United frailties continued as they were pegged back twice, relying on Ronaldo to rescue a 3-2 win.
Diego Simeone's side travel to Old Trafford in the Champions League on Tuesday, with the tie finely poised at 1-1 and a place in the quarter finals at stake. And Ferdinand views the tussle as a chance for United to respond to criticism and build confidence.
