Ruud van Nistelrooy has opened up on his delight at meeting Sir Alex Ferguson following PSV Eindhoven's draw at Rangers on Tuesday.
The Dutchman spent five years playing under Ferguson at Manchester United, winning the Premier League, FA Cup and League Cup. His time at Old Trafford ended amid reports of feud between himself and Ferguson, as he saw his playing time diminish.
But it appears that Van Nistelrooy still holds the legendary Scotsman in high regard having met him at Ibrox. Van Nistelrooy was taking charge of PSV for their Champions League play-off first leg against Rangers, which ended in a 2-2 draw.
