Juan Mata has said that his debut for Manchester United was "very exciting".

The club's record signing set up the second goal in their 2-0 win over Cardiff City at Old Trafford this evening.

The Spaniard told BBC Sport: "We had chances to score more than two. The win was very important for the team. It was very exciting for me. The fans are unbelievable.

"The lads welcomed me very well. I think it was a good game, I'm looking forward to improve. We will try until the end [to finish in the Champions League places]. We will never give up."

Mata completed his move from Chelsea for a £37.1m transfer fee on Saturday.
