Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson declared himself happy with the result as his side beat Inter 2-0 at Old Trafford, but not the performance.[LNB] The Red Devils booked their place in the last eight of the UEFA Champions League with two goals four minutes into either half.[LNB]Nemanja Vidic headed the holders into the lead before Cristiano Ronaldo sealed the win when he nodded in Wayne Rooney's delightful cross shortly after the break.[LNB]But United were not without their nervous moments as both Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Adriano hit the woodwork for the visitors.[LNB]"It was the type of match where we had to play a different type of football," Ferguson told Sky Sports 2.[LNB]Experience "Inter showed fantastic experience at times and showed that South American mentality and were very difficult to break down.[LNB]"The end result was very good. Good result, not a great performance."[LNB]The close nature of the tie did not surprise the Scot as his side were made to work for the win.[LNB]"When I first heard the draw I thought it was the hardest," he added.[LNB]"Your playing a magnificently experienced Inter Milan team, who are seven points clear in their league, and you know you never get an easy game against the Italians and that proved again tonight."[LNB]
