Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer attempted to rally players and fans after their 2-0 defeat to PSG on Tuesday night.

Kylian Mbappe and Presnel Kimpembe struck for PSG in the first-leg of their Champions League round 16 tie at Old Trafford.

Solskjaer said: "They had the momentum after the first goal and controlled the game. You could see that we hadn't played at this level for a while and we will have to learn. It was an experience that can go either way, it's not going to be a season defining one, it's one we have to learn from."

Asked if the injuries to Jesse Lingard and Anthony Martial made a difference, he added: "You can't say that's a reason, we had quality players to come on but Lingard and Martial give us something and let's hope they are not too serious. They are muscle injuries, we have to wait a couple of days."

Solskjaer also commented on Paul Pogba's dismissal: "Paul Pogba is trying to get his body across and Dani Alves is clever enough to put his foot in there. Paul wants to shield the ball, he's unlucky."

He added: "Mountains are there to be climbed, you can't lay down and say this is over We will go there, play our game and improve from today.

"Today is a reality check for us."
