Amorim explains why he's confident of Europa League success | OneFootball

In the wake of Manchester United's incredible Europa League heroics against Lyon, head coach Ruben Amorim has explained how it has given them a renewed boost of confidence.

His side appeared dead and buried at 4-2 down late in extra-time, only for three incredible last gasp goals to turn the tie around in their favour.

It has propelled the Red Devils into the semi-final of the competition, where they face Athletic Club, who will be buoyed by having the final in their own stadium - but Amorim revealed why he's optimistic about his side's prospects.

"Anything is possible for us. Of course, we will face a really tough opponent but we are ready to fight," Amorim said.

"Even if we don't play perfect football and have our best game, we can always show our character.

"This is mainly going to give us confidence and it gives us a clear target to aim for in our final games."

Are two trips to Bilbao in prospect next month for his side?
