A small lightening points out on its nose on the side of Manchester United. After a success in the Europa League semi-finals against Athletic Bilbao (4-1) this Thursday (victory in the first leg 3-0), the Red Devils validated their ticket for the final of the Queen of Europe competition.
Ruben Amorim's men will have the opportunity to win a trophy and, at the same time, to qualify for the Champion League. And this, despite their 15th place in the Premier League. The Mancunian formation will cross the iron with Tottenham, winner of a double confrontation against Bodo Glimt (3-1, 2-0), on May 21 in San Mamés.
“The least we can do for these supporters”
At a press conference, the Portuguese coach did not hide his state of mind when talking about the latter big meeting of the season for his team. “I am already stressed by the final. If we do not win, that will not mean anything. But we are happy to be there, so we'll see. It will be a grand final and we will try to win it ”assured the 40 -year -old tactician.
Aware of the responsibility that weighs on his shoulders, Amorim sees a potential final victory in C3 as an opportunity to redeem himself in the eyes of club supporters. “It is difficult to describe what it is to be the coach of this club, and you want to give supporters something, because we were so disappointing in the Premier League. This is the least we can do for these supporters, for the support they have given us during this difficult season ”he added.
