BARCELONA: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer completed Manchester United’s most famous comeback at Nou Camp in 1999 and he will try to oversee another there tomorrow morning when his team take on Barcelona.
“Of course it’s a fantastic memory for me. It’s the only time I’ve been on the pitch here,” Solskjaer said at a press conference on Monday.Ernesto Valverde has said Lionel Messi is fit and ready to play in the second leg as Barca bid to make the semis for the first time in four years. “It is true during the match he was a little stunned but he is in perfect condition and does not have any problems ahead of tomorrow’s game.”
“That memory from PSG will help the players and us as a team, that we know we can turn things around,” coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said. Barcelona’s recent history in this competition has been more painful as United look to follow Juventus, Atletico Madrid and Roma in sending them out in the quarter-finals for a fourth year in a row.
