'Why shouldn't we aim for the final?' - PSG win proved Man Utd's Champions League credentials, says Solskjaer

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer sees no reason why Manchester United can't aim for the Champions League final after proving their credentials in their Group H opener against Paris Saint-Germain.

United were rewarded for a third-place Premier League finish last season by being drawn in the "group of death" alongside PSG, RB Leipzig and Istanbul Basaksehir in the 2020-21 Champions League group stages.

Few expected the Red Devils to pick up a positive result on matchday one as they traveled to Parc des Princes to face the French champions, but Solskjaer saw his side rip up the pre-match script and pick up an impressive 2-1 victory.
