„Manchester United“ head coach believes that his team can break through to the quarterfinals of the Europa League even if „Liverpool“ manages to score an away goal.
„United“ will host Jurgen Klopp's squad on Thursday and will try to overturn a two-goal deficit. The Dutchman insists that they are focused on scoring goals and have real chances of progressing, but believes that if needed, his team can score four goals.
„We don't want to miss a goal. We only think about how to score them. We did it in the last round against „Midtjylland“. We don't want to miss, but if it happens, we can score four goals.“
The specialist also claims that his team owes the fans a great game for their support: „We don't fully meet the fans' expectations, but they still support the team and the coach. And we need support, as it makes a big impact. We owe the passionate fans a great performance, as they pay money to watch it and we must repay accordingly.“
„However, in sports you can lose and you can win and you have to accept that. But tomorrow we have to think only about how to beat „Liverpool“.
A win by 3 - 0 would guarantee progression, but L. van Gaal revealed that he is not overly focused on three goals and is concentrating on scoring two goals without conceding.
„We have to beat them 2 - 0, not 3 - 0, because we can do that and we will continue. Then we will have to beat them there to reach the next stage. But first 2 - 0.“
