Carabao Cup semi-final: Solskjaer reacts as Man Utd draw Man City

Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, has said his players are looking forward to "a nice little draw", after they were pitted against Manchester City in the Carabao Cup semi-finals.

United overcame Colchester United 3-0 at Old Trafford on Wednesday, to book their place in the final four.

They will now play City in the semi-final over two legs, during weeks commencing January 6 and 27.

Solskjaer's men beat City 2-1 at the Etihad Stadium on December 7 and the United boss seemed pleased with the draw.

"You always want to win trophies and you want to win games and we got a nice little draw.

"It'll be exciting times coming up.

"I don't feel anything is written in the stars; you just work hard, take what you get and do the best out of it.

"We've shown before that we can do well against City and teams like that," Solskjaer said at his post-match press conference.
