    FT: Man Utd 1-1 PSG

    Manchester United boss Marc Skinner, speaking to MUTV: "I was immensely proud. We let them get on top a bit in the first half, we felt like they had a different system, we made some adaptions.

    "I am proud of the resilience in the first half and proud of the effort, commitment and quality in the second leg.

    "Geyse, you put her on and all of a sudden she is a focal point to pull their players all over the place.

    "The level we have added is not just numbers but also quality and decision making.

    "We have always been the best team but now we want to be the best individuals in the team as well. There were players not utilised tonight who will be utilised through the season make the difference. They are all fully behind each other.

    "We are building. I still think we have lots to improve on, but I am really happy with our platform going into the second leg.

    "They now have experience. Our team belongs at this level. This is a quarter-final of the competition with the quality of the opposition but unfortunately we have to play them at this level. I will learn a lot and the girls will learn a lot."

    Manchester United were such a distant second best in the first half it looked like they would be on the end of a heavy defeat, but in the end they will perhaps even be feeling a bit frustrated they didn't get the win.

    The substitutions in the second half changed the game.
