It feels good to win at the San Siro - Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says it feels good to win against AC Milan especially at their well-known San Siro venue in an European game.

The manager also applauded Paul Pogba for his imposing performance in Italy after returning from injury.

The French star scored a 48-minute winner to qualify Manchester United who travelled to Italy with a 1-1 first leg aggregate at Old Trafford after being introduced for Marcus Rashford at the break.

The 28-year-old smartly struck home at the near post after shaping to cross just three minutes after being introduced and according to Solskjaer, his side were much better on the night.

“When you win a game of football away from home in a stadium like this against a team like this, you're very happy,” 1999 treble hero Solskjaer said.

“We started really well I felt. First 15-20 minutes I thought we looked like a very good team.

“Then there was a spell from halfway through the first half to half-time that we rushed things, missed the ball, lost the ball too often, made it a long game.

“I just had to reiterate a couple of things and second half I felt we were much, much better.”

Pogba has been absent from games as a result of injuries and his return was marked with a goal to sail Manchester United in the quarter-finals of the Europa League. The Norwegian updated that the World Cup winner will get better from time to time and the result is a boost for the rest of the squad.

“Paul looked like he'd been out for six weeks, yeah, for sure,” said the United boss, whose side take on Leicester in the FA Cup quarter-finals on Sunday.

“He's been working really hard but when you play football it's different and you can see that he needs… he couldn't play more than 45 and he'll get better and better.

“That's a big, big boost for us rest of the season because the boys have done fantastic without him but we know Paul's qualities.

“Marcus had a little twinge that we couldn't take a risk with him but hopefully he won't be too bad.”
