The Portuguese coach spoke ahead of the game at Old Trafford

Manchester United coach Jose Mourinho said that the clash with Sevilla is "very difficult" and highlighted the quality of his team's Champions League last 16 rivals.

“We're playing against a team that didn't lose against Liverpool home and away, scored goals against Liverpool, drew against Liverpool,” said Mourinho.

“Liverpool are a very good team, with an important stadium and with a big tradition, so it says Sevilla are a really good team. We won 2-1 against Liverpool on Saturday and at the end of the game there were some who said it was a disaster. So imagine if we were knocked out – it would be considered a disaster, but for me it would be a disappointment."
