In the midst of Manchester United's slim chance of winning the Premier League, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer claims, "Stranger things have happened in football."
United closed the gap on leaders Manchester City to eight points by completing their first top-flight double over Burnley since 1975-76, drawing 3-1 at Old Trafford in their game in hand.
DON'T MISS:
Solskjaer's team is currently in the same place the City was in in 2012 when they trailed United by eight points with six games remaining and clawed back the lead to win the title on a dramatic final day.
I am so proud that we never give up and that we have shown our fitness and endurance so many times this season," Solskjaer exclaimed.
DON'T MISS:
"We've come back, we scored three goals last week, we had a midweek friendly, and we have scored three goals in the second half today."
Our health, morale, and trust have all changed significantly this season relative to last, which is a huge step forward "Stranger things have happened in football, so it's possible.
We simply have to do our jobs and wait and see what some do."
United move to Leeds, host Liverpool, visit Aston Villa, and host Leicester and Fulham before finishing the season away at Wolves.
Following the Villa game on Wednesday, City will face Crystal Palace away, Chelsea at home, Newcastle away, Brighton away, and Everton at home to round out their domestic campaign.
Nine years ago, United lost at Wigan, then capitulated from 4-2 up to draw 4-4 with Everton before losing 1-0 at City to allow their neighbors to overtake them on goal difference.
