'There was a different feel'

Former Manchester United coach Rene Meulensteen, speaking on 大象传媒 Radio 5 Live: "Looking at the game around the 65-to-70 minute mark, I thought to myself - why have United fallen back and giving PAOK all the space to play?
"But the goal from Diallo came at the right time, it does feel like there was a different feel, a different energy and a bit more freedom.
"There is still a lack of quality in the final third, but eventually they kept going and Diallo got the goal.
"It's almost as if you can start to enjoy watching Manchester United again.
"Ruud van Nistelrooy has used his time well to address the players.
"It was clear Ruben Amorim was coming in, but he has said, "I have four games with you guys and we need to fix those things".
"He has done a great job."
On goalscorer Amad Diallo: "Diallo was by far the best man.
"The first goal, brilliant header, a very clever header.
"But I was more impressed with the second goal. He made that goal with his tenacity, pressing to win the ball back and then to dribble inside and have a fantastic finish.
"For a player who has not started a lot of the games, he was magnificent."
