'We were hopeful the quality would tell and it did'
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

"We knew we had a hard game and all credit to Millwall. We were on a hiding to nothing, they were comfortable on the ball and can play a bit. But we were hopeful in the end the quality would tell and it did."
Roy Keane
"We had to be very professional, I don't think were outstanding but [Cristiano] Ronaldo in particular was brilliant. I think he can be a world-class player. He is only 19 and to come with the massive price tag, he has done very well for us."
Gary Neville
"If we look after him [Ronaldo] the right way he is going to be one of the stars of football."
Sir Alex Ferguson
"My players have done very well but had we not gone in 1-0 down at half-time it might have been different. That goal killed us off. We made a mistake and we got punished.
"I told the players we were done by a sloppy goal, the second I don't know if it was a penalty and the third was offside. But it was fantastic for us - we gave it a go."
Dennis Wise
"We were punished for a mistake for the first goal and even though Ruud van Nistelrooy got two goals he had a quiet game. That tells you everything."
Neil Harris
"United are a good side. They were a little bit fortunate but the better side won. Our lads have learned a lot."
