PSG vs Manchester United: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer given a 9 in L'Equipe's infamously harsh ratings
The Norwegian made the right moves to inspire a famous comeback at the Parc des Princes to advance to the quarter-finals
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was the star of the show as Manchester United stunned Paris Saint-Germain, according to French newspaper L'Equipe.
The United boss was handed a nine out of 10 for his performance from the touchline, topping any other player rating.
Notoriously harsh when handing out ratings, L'Equipe were scathing of the French side, with Gianluigi Buffon and Thilo Kehrer lowest with just two out of 10.
The referee, Damir Skomina, despite the controversial call to award a penalty late on for a handball from Presnel Kimpembe, was given seven out of 10.
Romelu Lukaku was the star on the pitch for United though, picking up eight out of 10 - though none of Solskjaer's players threatened to repeat the historic achievement of Ajax's Dusan Tadic, who was awarded a perfect 10 for just the 10th time in the newspaper's history.
