Solskjaer insists Man Utd not intimidated facing Man City

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer insists his players aren't intimidated facing Manchester City in the Carabao Cup.

United meet City in the first-leg of the semifinal tonight.

“We beat them a month ago, so we know we can beat them," he said.

“We played a really good game. I felt we had nine or 10 chances in the first half that could have easily been three or four goals.

“You've got to beat their press because they are good at regaining the ball quickly. If you can get past the first press, I think you've got a good chance, and if you can press them at the back you've also got a good chance. There are different ways of getting a result."
