However, the Ivorian turned in a wretched performance and was caught out of position time and time again.<\/p>\n<p>An apparent injury to Bailly allowed Solskjaer to rectify this by bringing on Dalot and United looked much more solid thereafter.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Smalling was superb at the back, contributing seven clearances and three interceptions alongside the unflappable Victor Lindelof, while midfielders Scott McTominay and Fred stood up magnificently against opposite numbers Marco Verratti and Marquinhos.<\/p>\n<p>And up front, the often maligned Lukaku worked tirelessly and took his tally to 15 for the season with two well-taken finishes.<\/p>\n<p>United have now won nine straight away games under Solskjaer and reached the last eight for the first time since 2014.<\/p>\n<p>It now seems a case of when, not if, Solskjaer is named permanent manager.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013<\/p>\n<p>Source: BBC<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marcus Rashford scored a nerveless injury-time penalty as Manchester United staged an incredible comeback to beat Paris St-Germain on away goals and reach the Champions League quarter-finals.
