Louis van Gaal admits Liverpool tie is must-win for Manchester United

Louis van Gaal admits the prospect of Champions League qualification makes Manchester United’s last-16 Europa League tie with Liverpool a must-win.

"You have to win - there is no difference [with it being a Cup competition]," Van Gaal said. "United and Liverpool is always a big game. "It's historical and even bigger now because both teams are fighting for a Champions League place."
