Man Utd 0-1 Barcelona: United have the tools to turn tie around - Dion Dublin analysis

The biggest positive that Manchester United can take out of Wednesday's defeat by Barcelona is that they only lost by one goal. United did not do enough at Old Trafford to deserve anything from the first leg of their quarter-final, but the scoreline means they still have a chance in this tie. Of course, beating Barca in their own back yard is going to be extremely difficult but I believe United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has got the tools to do it If they have a positive attitude, then they can put Barcelona under pressure - we saw that for spells of this first leg.

REPORT: SLAVIA PRAGUE 0 CHELSEA 1

Chelsea’s happy knack of scoring late winning goals in Prague continued tonight as Marcos Alonso’s header four minutes from time decided the first leg of this Europa League quarter-final tie. The Spaniard carefully nodded in Willian’s deep cross to give us a big advantage heading back to the Bridge in a week’s time, and replicate our previous triumphs in the Czech capital. In both 2003 and 2013 goals in the final 10 minutes secured the Blues 1-0 victories. Tonight's game was shorn of clear chances and looked for the most part like it would end goalless. Willian hit the bar in the first half and Toni Rudiger had a volley well saved after the break, while for us Kepa Arrizabalaga made a couple of decent second-half stops to ensure a third straight clean sheet this month, and a fourth in a row in the Europa League. Our impressive record in the competition continues, and even though we didn’t have it all our own way tonight, unlike previous outings, we still return to London...
