Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea says they can face Barcelona full of confidence in the second-leg of their Europa League playoff.

The two teams played out a 2-2 draw at the Nou Camp last night.

It is never a great result when you draw but it was a great match," De Gea told MUTV.

I think both teams tried to score goals and create chances, it was a great game. Maybe after we scored the second goal we were controlling the game, then they scored to make it 2-2.

It was a bit difficult at the end as they created some chances, but let's see. The game is open, so let's see at Old Trafford on Thursday if we can play [more] great football and try and win again.

It is always great to play the second leg at home, with our fans and we are in a great way," De Gea added. It is perfect for us to go there and play our game and win the game.

I think every game we try to win but they are a great team for sure and they are doing really well.

A draw for sure is a good result and we go to Old Trafford with our fans and try to put pressure on them. [We will] try to play good football and win the game."
