Giggs: We can win it

Ryan Giggs says there is a real belief in the United camp that the Reds can win the Champions League this season.

The veteran winger was part of the 1999 Treble-winning side who famously sealed a dramatic victory over Bayern Munich in the dying seconds at the Nou Camp.

In the semi-finals it's a return to the scene of the Reds' greatest recent triumph and Giggs says the players are confident of getting past Frank Rijkaard's Barcelona team and beyond.

"The Barcelona games are the kind of matches you want to play in as players. All the lads are looking forward to it," Giggs told MUTV.

"Playing at the Nou Camp will be a great experience. It's a massive pitch and you're up against great players. It's about performing over the two legs and we're confident we've got the ability to get through.

"When you get to the semis you know you're only one step away from the final and you want to make sure you get there. We're determined to do that.

"There are four teams left and they're all top sides who are capable of winning the competition. We hope it's us."
