Jose Mourinho praises Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after the Manchester United caretaker boss guided the Premier League side to a stunning win over Paris Saint-Germain in Europe.

Jose Mourinho has said that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer guided Manchester United to an 'incredible result' against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.

United faced a two-goal deficit heading into Wednesday's second leg, but the Premier League side registered a 3-1 victory to progress to the Champions League quarter-finals on away goals.

Mourinho was sacked as United boss in December, but the Portuguese has acknowledged the achievement of his successor at the Parc des Princes.

The 56-year-old told RT: "In terms of players, I was immediately thinking about [Dusan] Tadic, because he was a key player in that amazing match.

"But I think independent of the performances, Ajax and Manchester United results are phenomenal results, and if the responsibility in the bad days is for the managers, the responsibility of the good days is then also for the managers.

"So for me, [Erik] ten Hag from Ajax and Solskjaer from Manchester United. Incredible results, so credit to them."

Solskjaer has now won 14 of his 17 matches in caretaker charge of United.
