Solskjaer: “This is like a World Cup or a European Championship”

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer faces the semi-finals for the third time this season after having stayed in this round in two tournaments already, the Carabao and the FA Cup in England. The Manchester United manager believes that against Sevilla on Sunday, the time has come to leave frustrations behind: “Reaching the semi-finals is having made a good effort, but not enough for United. We need to take the next step.” the coach told the official media of his club.

The Norwegian coach hopes the two frustrations will spur his team on: “We must make sure that the pain of having fallen like this twice can mean the difference, we want this title more than the rival. When you lose something you don't want that feeling to repeat itself, so my players are sure to be ready. “

“This is like a European Championship or a World Cup, you don't have a second chance and you know you have to leave it all over the field, which is fine for me.. It is a different format than what we are used to, roundtrip matches, but I think it is the best way to finish the tournament, “added Solskjaer.

And he spoke of the physical state at this stage of the campaign: “Physically we are well and all the teams have played many games anyway. Now it's about knowing who is mentally stronger. You can look at your rival and know that you are tired but what you want is that he is more tired than you “.
