After a goalless draw with Marseille at the Stade Velodrome on Wednesday night, no other result can be guaranteed to take United into the quarter-finals. It is not a position to be scared of given they reached the Champions League final in 2008 on the back of a similarly tight first-leg in their semi-final against Barcelona.
"All we have to do is win the game. I don't care if it is 10-9."
Neither side carved out a clear-cut chance, United's best opportunity coming through a Darren Fletcher snap-shot in the first-half which did not find the Marseille net.
"I don't think it was a good match to watch," admitted Ferguson. "Nothing really happened," he said.
