Solskjaer: Kimpembe very luck not to be sent off

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer feels his side were unlucky not to have been playing up a man as they fell to Paris Saint-Germain 2-0 in a Champions League round of 16 first-leg tie on Tuesday.

Goals from Presnel Kimpembe and Kylian Mbappe were enough to see off United on the night, with Paul Pogba picking up a second booking late in the match to add more misery to Solskjaer’s club heading into the second leg.

But the interim manager felt Kimpembe, who opened the scoring 53 minutes in, could easily have been sent off before ever finding the net.
