Manchester United midfielder Fred believes his team are good enough to reach the Champions League final having produced a comeback against Paris Saint-Germain.
After playing his part to help United become the first team in Champions League history to progress in a knockout tie after losing the first leg by two or more goals at home, Fred believes the Red Devils have the quality to reach the final in Madrid on June 1.
“Unbelievable,” he said to reporters. “We had a great match. PSG are a very good team, but we always believed. We knew it was going to be difficult, but we worked hard and sought the victory until the end of the game.
“We started with lots of pressure because we lost 2-0 at home and had to seek victory and score a quick goal. Fortunately, we managed to score in two minutes and, unfortunately, we conceded a goal right after. But we showed serenity on the field to seek the victory until the end of the game.A
“PSG are a great team with experienced players and young ones, too. We knew it would be difficult, but we wanted the victory. We have a team that can reach the final. We knew it would be difficult, but we wanted to win. We believed until the end and we did it.”
United claimed a dramatic 3-1 win on Wednesday at Parc des Princes to reach the quarter-finals on away goals after a 3-3 aggregate draw
