Seemed the plan was to just contain first half then hit them the second.

Superb. Loved Mings ,but my man of the match was Maatsen. Top drawer.

I'm looking forward to the Liverpool stuffing in the next round now as predicted by Opta and Carragher.

A forgotten first 45 (who cares!) but a superb 2nd half. Main thing is we are in the hat. Roll on PSG

Asensio and rash brilliant

Should have been more. Much better second half.

Mings was my MotM, though Asensio was a close second.

I think if they hadn't got the red they'd have given us a game, but likely we'd have done the usual of going a goal down and then coming to life.

Looked like it to me. Sensible when you're 3-1 up and the red card helped.

Maatsen MOTM.

Top 8 teams in Europe.

Lovely stuff - Rashford and Maatsen were great. Obviously Asensio is just stardust.

That first 45 played out pretty much how the Boss planned it - superb game management.

Same as first leg!

Great achievement to reach the quarters!
