Owen: Kyiv were "afraid" of United

Owen Hargreaves has accused Dynamo Kyiv of being "afraid" during Manchester United's 4-2 win in the Ukraine, as Sir Alex Ferguson's side cruised to one of the easiest European away triumphs during the Scot's stint in charge a fortnight ago. If United can beat Kyiv in their Champions League rematch at Old Trafford on Wednesday, they will book a place in the knockout phase with two games to spare. "Dynamo seemed a bit afraid of us in Kyiv," Hargreaves said. "It is very rare in the Champions League that you see someone pulled apart so easily and concede four goals at home. Normally, those type of games are very difficult but Dynamo were really quite poor, surprisingly so for that level of competition."
