Mirror quoted the former Dortmund boss:

"It was a good test tonight for our next opponent, we play Tottenham, and they, obviously, are not too bad in counter-attacking as well.
"So yeah we should do that better, but I know the boys will do it better."

Meanwhile, Legit.ng had earlier reported that Man United are through to the fifth round of the FA Cup after stunning Liverpool 3-2 in a thrilling fourth-round tie played on Sunday evening, January 24, at Old Trafford.

This was the second meeting between the two sides in nearly a week having squared off at Anfield in a Premier League tie.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer rang a couple of changes of the FA Cup encounter, with Mason Greenwood, Scott McTominay, Dean Henderson and Donny van de Beek getting a nod.

But it was Liverpool who rattled the net first through Mohamed Salah who broke the deadlock in the 19th minute after Roberto Firmino slide in for the Egyptian to slot home over Henderson.
