I scored my one and only Man Utd goal to get Sir Alex Ferguson his first win – now I run my own agency
SIR ALEX FERGUSON’S first goal as Manchester United manager was scored by forgotten star John Sivabeck.
The Dane spent only one year at Old Trafford before being sold to St Etienne.
The right-back made 36 appearances and scored just one goal – a winner against QPR which gave Ferguson his first victory as United boss.
The Red Devils had played 213 minutes of football under Fergie without scoring a goal before Sivabeck curled in a free-kick at Old Trafford.
Sivabeck, 61, also had spells at Monaco, Pescara and Danish side Vejle, where he made 296 appearances.
The defender won 87 caps for Denmark and was part of the team that claimed victory in the European Championship in 1992.
He retired in 1997 and became a football agent with Proactive Scandinavia.
Sivabeck founded his own football agency company in 2017 – Sivabeck Sports Agency.
They represent many Danish players as well as Plymouth star Mustapha Bundu.
Reflecting on his memorable United goal, Sivabeck said: “I’m very proud of that – the only goal I scored for United. It is part of history.

“The manager was delighted afterwards.
“It is always nice to be in the history books and to score the first goal for a new manager – one that wins the game – was great.
