MANCHESTER: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes Manchester United's remarkable recovery to eliminate Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League last 16 has instilled a belief they can also end Barcelona's European dreams.
"I can feel the tension, the excitement. I felt the mood ahead of PSG home game was different. We have learnt from that PSG game," said the Norwegian, who was appointed United's new permanent manager last month after a highly successful caretaker spell in charge. "We know we need to perform to our best levels, which we didn?t against PSG at home. The outcome of the second leg against PSG has given the players and supporters belief that the same is possible against Barcelona."United's comeback at the Parc des Princes was even more remarkable as Solskjaer was without 10 first-team players.
However, Solskjaer is hopeful that Marcus Rashford and Nemanja Matic will be fit despite failing to take a full part in training on Tuesday.
