Next goal vital – Fletch
Whoever scores the first goal in next month’s second-leg last 16 match between Manchester United and AC Milan will be in the pound seats to advance, claims United midfielder Darren Fletcher. The Red Devils hold a slight advantage after their 3-2 win at the San Siro on Tuesday. "The next goal is going to be crucial," said Fletcher on Wednesday."We went to win the first leg and we've done that but it is still all to play for in the tie. We have seen the quality Milan have got in their side. They are capable of creating chances and scoring goals so we will have to be on top form to get through." United, however, have not been beaten by two goals on home soil in 53 years of European football.
