Substitute Marouane
Fellaini scored in second-half stoppage time as Manchester United beat
Valencia 2-1 in manager Louis van Gaal's first home game in charge of
the English Premier League club.
Wayne Rooney had a first-half penalty saved in the 32nd minute having earlier been felled by defender Antonio Barragan.
United
broke the deadlock early in the second half when Darren Fletcher
slotted home from the edge of the area after Ashley Young's 49th minute
corner.
The visitors pressed for an equalizer and were rewarded in
the 71st when Rodrigo blazed a first-time volley into the roof of the
net following a free-kick.
Substitute Pablo Piatti poked a shot
wide from close range moments later and the La Liga side were left to
rue that miss when Fellaini struck late on.
