“How I’m feeling is exactly how you think I’m feeling! I’m feeling amazing. Wow!” began Haaland in his interview with the Matchday Live panel at Old Trafford.
“The effort we made today, the amount of duels we won. A bit of a different approach to the game when we got the red card. You have to kind of stick more together and take the chances you get them. We had to adapt.
“I’m so proud in the end that we managed to win and the personality we showed when we got the red card to just keep the ball is amazing.
“Wow, what an atmosphere there [away end], the scenes were amazing, both with the goal and after the game.”
