Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea was delighted with his clean sheet in victory at Norwich.

Cristiano Ronaldo's 75th-minute penalty, emphatically converted past Tim Krul, gave Manchester United three points to take home from Norwich, but it was the goalkeeping heroics of De Gea that will stick longer in the memory.

On several occasions, the hosts appeared certain to have finally beaten the 31-year-old shot-stopper, only for De Gea to come up with a piece of brilliance.

Discussing his display post-match, he explained to club media that his favourite save was his denial of Teemu Pukki in the 55th-minute.

"I think the Pukki one was probably the most difficult one, quick turn, shoot with the left, I stopped with my fingers," De Gea said.

"It was a very difficult save. I always say the same, I'm there to help the team, especially on days like today, a difficult, difficult game. One goal from Cristiano, 1-0, three points, it's a big win for us."
