You successfully pull off a last gasp improbable comeback victory against PSG to book a spot among the UCL last eight and what do you get as your reward? A quarterfinal clash with none other than Barcelona.
This was one draw which many Manchester United fans dreaded, as despite their resurgence since Solskjaer's appointment, they are not quite the finished product yet (as the defeat to Arsenal over the weekend showed us).
United have been very impressive in recent months - that's a given, but Barcelona is on an entirely different level to all the tests faced by Solksjaer in his Old Trafford reign so far.
This would be a rematch of the 2009 and 2011 UCL finals where Barcelona triumphed on both, with Lionel Messi (who else) scoring in the two fixtures despite Sir Alex Ferguson's best efforts to contain him.
Both clubs have come a long way from those years with United undoubtedly being the worse of the two and the Red Devils would come up against a wounded Barcelona led by the ever-impressive Lionel Messi who is desperate to get his hands on the UCL trophy once more.
Even though the odds look stacked against them, United fans can take solace in the fact that the Blaugrana have faltered massively at this stage recently, being eliminated at the quarterfinals in each of the last three seasons with the capitulation at Roma the last term being the nadir.
While their impressive elimination of PSG as well as the fact that the greatest hour In the club's history came at Nou Camp in 1999 when they came from behind to win Bayern Munich in the dying embers of the match and become the first English team to win a treble (with none other than Solskjaer scoring the winning goal).
Verdict - Barcelona to go through
