Manchester United head coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed that he is pleased with the result after his squad beating Paris Saint-Germain 2-1 in their opening Champions League group game.
The game at Parc des Princes on Tuesday night ended by Manchester United earning a victory over Paris Saint-Germain as they faced each other in the quarter-final in 2019. Manchester United were given goals by Bruno Fernandes' penalty shot at the 23rd minute and Marcus Rashford scoring the winning goal at 3 minutes before the end of time.
Solskjaer is very pleased with this game: "We won against one of the best teams in the world – a fantastic one. Victor [Lindelof] and Axel played tremendous. It’s a better performance this time than last even though last time we won 3-1."
"The performance showed we had developed. Scott [McTominay] and Fred were outstanding. Scotty played the first half with only one eye – that was the most impressive thing because he lost his contact lens."
The Norwegian head coach also praised the captian Fernandes who missed the first penalty shootout but not afraid to shoot the second despite missing in the last game against Newcastle United: "I’m not surprised – you know he has great character and after the Newcastle one [he missed on Saturday] and this I was sure he would want to take it again."
