West Brom boss Tony Pulis hailed his side's Premier League draw away to Manchester United on Saturday as a "magnificent" point.
United drew for the eighth time at Old Trafford this season as West Brom, who only had 25 per cent possession and three shots on goal, put on a defensive masterclass.
Jose Mourinho's men struggled to find any tempo in their attacking play but Baggies goalkeeper Ben Foster did produce a stunning late stop to deny Marcus Rashford's fabulous free-kick. However, Darren Fletcher nearly won it for the visitors after David de Gea spilled an effort onto the crossbar.
"It was magnificent - to come and get a point at Old Trafford," Pulis said.
"I thought we were really resilient and well set-up in lots of respects.
"The one thing I will say is we played very similar against Arsenal two weeks ago, but once we won the ball, we got that first pass off and created lots of opportunities.
"I think we had eight great chances against Arsenal, scored three goals.
"Today we didn't do that. We kept giving the ball back to United and that added to the pressure, then you need a little bit of good fortune at times and need people to play very, very well and that's what we did.
"But in possession, we must do better than that."
