MANCHESTER, United Kingdom (AFP) - Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admitted his side were fortunate to grab a much-needed 2-1 win over West Ham on Saturday (April 13) courtesy of two Paul Pogba penalties.
Solskjaer's men had lost four of their previous five games in all competitions and could easily have suffered another damaging defeat to their chances of a top-four Premier League finish.
West Ham had a goal harshly ruled out for offside, hit the crossbar and saw David de Gea make a wonder save to deny Michail Antonio giving them a late lead.
"They played better than us, it is fair to say, I don't think anyone will disagree," said the Norwegian.
"We got away with it. Sometimes we have lost when we should have won, so over a season it evens itself out."
Solskjaer left Marcus Rashford and Scott McTominay on the bench among five changes from the side that started Wednesday's Champions League quarter-final, first leg defeat to Barcelona.
And he admitted the quick turnaround before facing Barca again in the Camp Nou on Tuesday had affected his team selection.
Â
"Playing on Wednesday, and today and again on Tuesday played a major factor," he added.
"We got away with it, got three points, in a few years no-one will remember how we played if we finished in the top four.
"We rested a couple, thankfully, we got through it and we will be ready for Tuesday. With a performance like this we all know we will struggle in Barcelona, and we will have to improve."
Victory lifted United up to fifth at the expense of Arsenal and to within two points of fourth-placed Chelsea.
Liverpool striker Divock Origi missed the chance to secure three points for the Premier League leaders on Monday night against West Ham. The Reds dropped two crucial points in the title race against the Hammers at the London Stadium, despite taking the lead through a 22nd minute Sadio Mane strike.

Looking ahead from this European defeat, there is some hope. Now is the time for the club to, like Liverpool, invest more in the squad over the summer and bounce back again next year. The board must support Mauricio Pochettino's Tottenham Hotspur project, or else it will collapse and he will move on and build a new one with another club.
