"It reminded me a bit of Dortmund when we won the UEFA Cup Final," he said. "It's a special bonding for the fans and the team."

"To play Manchester United - don't forget that they had two extra days rest - we had to have discipline.

"We will probably get a bit of relief now and there will be less pressure on us in the Premiership as we know we will be in Europe next season."
