Young Boys duo Rieder, Lauper stunned by 'amazing' Man Utd shock

Young Boys midfielder Fabian Rieder was lost for words after their Champions League win against Manchester United.

YB came from behind to shock United 2-1.

"I can not really believe it right now. To score the second goal in the 95th minute is indescribable. The noise from the fans when the goal was scored was just amazing," said Rieder.

"The fans are like a 12th man for us. They gave us a lot of confidence and I'm sure all the players thought so."

Defender Sandro Lauper was proud of the performance.

"It is difficult to keep the concentration for 90 minutes against a team with so much quality. We could have put a little more pressure on their goal, but the most important thing was that we scored two and they only scored one," he added.
