In the never ending saga on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s fight for job security at Manchester United, a good showing in the UEFA Champions League is an absolute must.
Unfortunately for him, that has not happened so far but he has a chance to change that on Tuesday in a must-win scenario.
His Red Devils square off against RB Leipzig, which is fresh off a 3-3 thriller with Bayern Munich over the weekend. It was not a win over the giants, but putting up three on them will leave any team feeling empowered.
Both parties involved share a three-way, nine-point tie with PSG. Meaning the loser will be reduced to setting its sights on lesser esteemed continental glory.

How is the Juve v. Barcelona game a top match? And no English language TV for the US vs. El Salvador? I don’t understand these programming decisions.
Should read how is Juve vs. Barcelonna NOT a top match?
The result is almost meaningless. Both teams are already through, and Juve would have to win by 4 to overtake Barca. If you follow Americans abroad, it’s obviously a good game to check out.
Regarding Juve vs. Barcelona, even if they both play their second units, I think it will still be more interesting than most of the other games.
English-language broadcast of USA-El Salvador will be on ESPNews and streaming on the ESPN app for authenticated users (read: those who get ESPNews as part of their cable/live streaming setup).
Thx!!
