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.
Your support makes all the difference.That's fantastic - three Doubles in five years. The boys were marvellous. This has been a tremendous season and once again the players produced it when it mattered. Alex Ferguson, Manchester United's manager
We tried to reorganise the team after Keane went off but Teddy Sheringham was marvellous, great movement and a terrific finish. We had a big decision to make about whether to risk some players but you have to trust them to tell you if they are OK. Ferguson
It's amazing how this game changes around. One minute you're down, the next you're up. Teddy Sheringham, scorer of Manchester United's first goal after coming off the bench
I was struggling with my right ankle and then twisted my left ankle. The team needed someone who was 100 per cent fit. The substitution made it for us, but the whole squad deserve the credit. Roy Keane, Manchester United captain
It wasn't the best of goals, I didn't hit it too well but it went in, thankfully. We have all had a bit of flu this week but I felt OK to play. David Beckham, Gary Neville and one or two others were struggling. Paul Scholes, who scored the second goal
I can't say it was easy. Newcastle played their part. The hunger is still there for the Champions' Cup final. It's another big game but this final hasn't taken anything out of the lads. I have sympathy for Newcastle. It's two years on the trot at Wembley with nothing to show for it. Andy Cole, Manchester United's former Newcastle striker
We were punished for mistakes. We were pushing, pushing, pushing but you can't afford to make mistakes. Not just today, it's the whole season. Ruud Gullit, Newcastle's manager.
