Ole Gunnar Solskjaer insisted Manchester United played to a high standard. The Red Devils ended the match against Leeds United with a 0-0 draw. But the United manager disagreed with former Old Trafford man Paul Ince, who asserted his firm belief while on Sky Sports punditry duty that neither United nor Leeds played well at Elland Road as the points were shared. Solskjaer did agree that United hadn't been at their best in the final third but he remains upbeat about his team's form ahead of Thursday night's Europa League semi-final versus Roma. He added: "It [was] a chance for every player to work, one against one, but seriously up until the last 18 yards, that's when the quality or the decision let us down in that last moment. "You don't lose momentum, we are disappointed we didn't get three points but the boys know we've put a shift down. This is not going to be something we look back on as derailing our season, definitely not."
