Manchester United coach Ruben Amorim made press statements following the 5-4 victory over Olympique Lyon after extra time in the second leg of the Europa League quarter-finals at Old Trafford.

The first leg at Lyon ended in a 2-2 draw.

The coach said: "A single moment can change a lot in the minds of the players. We need to focus intensely on the Europa League, and sometimes take risks with young players in the Premier League. The fans need to understand that; we must focus on the Europa League."

Regarding hopes of winning the tournament: "Everyone at this moment believes in the possibility of winning, we need a bit of luck given the injuries."

On what he felt when Maguire scored the winning goal: "The atmosphere in the stadium was the best ever. Some people collect shirts and scarves, but I want to keep that sound; it's the best sound in the world."

About United fans leaving early: "I feel sorry for those who had to leave after we were trailing 4-2 due to the crowd; they will feel very sad."

He concluded: "We know we are performing poorly and deserve all this criticism, but we have enough time to offer something special this season."
