Cardiff boss Solskjaer: Good time to return to Man Utd

Cardiff City boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wasn't downbeat after defeat at former club Manchester United.

Solskjaer received a rousing reception when he took his place in the away dugout.

"It was a good time to come to Old Trafford," said a smiling Solskjaer, whose memorable goal gave United their dramatic Champions League win 15 years ago.

"But I thought we did well against them.

"I am pleased with our overall performance but we lacked that goalscorer who wants to score a goal, we lacked that 'oomph'."
