United laboured in disposing of the Danish side in 90 minutes, with their 21st penalty kick of the season, converted by Bruno Fernandes in the 95th minute, enough to book a semifinal clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers or Sevilla. “We need to be more clinical in knockout games,” Solskjaer said. “I am delighted we are through to another semifinal for this team and the next challenge is to go one step further, and then hopefully win the [final], too. We have worked hard throughout the season, and come quite a distance from where we were in terms of fitness, but mentally — that is where [the semifinals] are decided.”
