Andersen: 'United draw as big as it gets'

FC Midtjylland goalkeeper Mikkel Andersen has described his side's Europa League round-of-32 tie against Manchester United as "big as it gets".

The Danish team were drawn the Premier League giants in Nyon this afternoon.

United dropped into the second-tier European competition after losing 3-2 to Wolfsburg in the Champions League last week.

"This is as big as it gets," UEFA's official website quotes Andersen as saying. "Of course, we have a chance [against Manchester United]. We can play without any pressure."

Meanwhile, United's rivals Liverpool will face Augsburg and Tottenham Hotspur will take on Fiorentina.
