The special moment Ole Gunnar Solskjaer watched daughter Karna win first Man United trophy

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was a proud father on Wednesday night as he watched his daughter Karna lift her first trophy with the Manchester United Women’s team. 

Karna, who was playing for the United Women’s U21s side, helped the Red Devils defeat Birmingham City 4-1 in the Women’s Super League Academy Cup Final. 

The teenager started the match and threaded a delightful through ball to Alyssa Aherne for United’s second goal. She played just over 60 minutes overall, before being replaced by Keira Barry just after the hour mark. 

While the Norwegian didn’t manage to get on the scoresheet, it was nonetheless an immensely satisfying moment for Ole. The former United men’s boss posed for photographs with Karna after the match and was beaming in typical Solskjaer fashion. 

Ole has kept a relatively low profile since his exit as manager of the men’s team, but there was no attempt to disguise himself on this occasion as he cheered on Karna from the stands. 

The result means that both Karna and Ole have now won silverware in United colours. However, it’s fair to say the teenager still has a long way to go to replicate the success of her father.

Across an 11 year spell at Old Trafford, Ole won 10 trophies, including six Premier League titles and most famously, the Champions League in 1999, where he scored the winner against Bayern Munich in stoppage time. 

Yet, Ole has previously joked that his daughter is too young to remember this iconic moment: “My daughter Karna and my youngest son Elijah… they don’t remember their daddy playing,” he said.
