The Harambee Stars coach, a former backroom staff member at Manchester United during Erik Ten Hag's tenure, has followed the Red Devils’ campaign closely.

United's heroic comeback against Lyon in the quarter-finals of the Europa League left the South African football legend in awe.

"I'm still tired after last night’s match, because my brain, my heart, everything was a hundred miles an hour, but I'm glad for the team because I think this is the best opportunity that we can get—getting into the Champions League, especially after the season that we had. So I'm very delighted for the guys," said McCarthy in a video by Kenyan Historian on YouTube following the match.

"I think because you thought to yourself, with 10 men scoring two goals against United, there’s no comeback from that. But credit to the manager and the players for persevering and really pushing, and not disappointing the United fans," he added.

McCarthy left Manchester United as a first-team coach on June 27, 2024, when his two-year contract expired.

The now Harambee Stars coach joined Erik ten Hag's team in the summer of 2022.
