United Briefing: Lindelof relishing season climax

The Reds came from behind and scored five second-half goals to put ourselves in a commanding position in the Europa League semi-finals.

Bruno Fernandes had put United in front early on, chipping the keeper after a wonderful move involving the jinking Paul Pogba and Edinson Cavani. When the ball struck Pogba's hand inside the box, Roma had the chance to equalise. Lorenzo Pellegrini made no mistake from the spot and Edin Dzeko tapped home a second for the visitors before the break.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admitted post-match that he shared some stern words with his players. It did the trick. Cavani got United back level after 48 minutes, scored another after 64 minutes and further goals came from Bruno, Pogba and Mason Greenwood, who came off the bench to find the net for the fifth time in April.

Asked to pick the best of the goals, Victor admitted it was a difficult job.

"It's hard!" he told MUTV. "There were a few really good ones. Edi's goal, the one he put in the top corner, was very nice. The combination for the first goal was also very good. It's difficult to pick one but if I have to, I think I go for Edi's one in the top corner.

"I think Edi was absolutely brilliant today. I think he showed what kind of player he is. His experience as well; he was absolutely top in the way he managed the game, controlled the ball and obviously scored goals as well."

Cavani has now scored 12 goals for United, and six at Old Trafford, but is yet to be able to celebrate with the United supporters.

"That's a shame," Lindelof conceded.

"I think he would have enjoyed scoring goals in front of our fans and I think everyone is missing them. Hopefully, we can get them back because a night like this deserves fans."

Having beaten Roma emphatically, United now host Liverpool at Old Trafford on Sunday.

"This is where you want to be at the end of the season," said the Sweden centre-back. "You want to be playing big games, you want to be playing semi-finals.

"I can only talk for myself but I'm enjoying it, I think all the guys are enjoying it as well because you always want to play the big games. It's brilliant."
