Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim revealed that he drew inspiration from the club's 1999 Champions League victory during a tense Europa League quarter-final match against Lyon. After leading 2-0, United found themselves down 4-2 in extra-time, but following a crucial team talk and strategic changes, they scored three goals late in the match to secure a spot in the semi-finals. Amorim emphasized the importance of mindset over tactics, showcasing the resilience and belief within his squad.
At the moment when we were down 4-2, I told the team, 'Itâs not over until it's over, keep believing'. That was our rallying cry.
I was watching the '99 documentary for inspiration. The team were tired. At 4-2, you think it is over, but here it is never over.
