Mourinho: Mentality and desire carried Man Utd past Celta

The Red Devils have the chance to end the season "in a perfect way", the manager said after they scraped through to the final

Jose Mourinho said the desire fuelled by his description of Manchester United's Europa League semi-final with Celta Vigo as the most important game in the history of the club was pivotal to their progression to the final.

United led 1-0 from the first leg in Galicia courtesy of a Marcus Rashford free-kick, and it was the England international who supplied the cross for Marouane Fellaini to head them ahead in the return fixture and ease nerves around Old Trafford on Thursday.
