Manchester United have their Champions League fate resting on one game, away at RB Leipzig, but this is not uncharted territory for the club.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer quipped that it is almost a 'tradition' for United to make life difficult for themselves but insists his side are ready to produce the goods when it matters on Tuesday night.
'It's something that we want, games like this,' he said at a pre-game press conference. It's a tradition for Man United - we never make it easy for ourselves.
'Of course we look at the games, especially the away game against Istanbul (Basaksehir) that we could have got three points, but that's just the way we do things.
'We do make it hard for ourselves. That's been ever since I played and that's a long, long time ago.'
He went on: 'You get to the last game of the group stage and you're in the next round if you go and win that game or you get a draw so it's an important game. Of course it is.'
'There is a lot of pressure on United heading into Tuesday's match, but Solskjaer is confident the players will rise to the occasion.
'Knockout games or games like this that mean you can go through or not are big,' the United boss said.
'The players are here, they are Man United players, because they have qualities that we've looked for and I'm sure that tomorrow night will prove that's the reason why they're here, they will show it.
'I think the character of the group is getting better and better and we're looking forward to the game.
