Pogba lights up the Manchester United match and impresses Ibrahimovic – Fil Info – Europa League

Paul Pogba definitely doesn’t do things like everyone else. By entering the first half against Milan, in the second leg of the eighth final of the European League, the French international used art and the method to make his return a milestone. He was all the spotlight when he caught a dangerous ball in the penalty area to score the one and only goal of the match, with a powerful shot under the bar (49, 1-0). It took him three minutes on the field to shine again, after a month and a half spent in the infirmary.

The former Juventus player’s performance was impressive as he had not played for his team since February 6. There was an injury to his right thigh in the league against Everton (3-3). As Luke Shaw remembers, “It always helps to have a world-class player like Paul.” The Frenchman proved that again yesterday when his coach decided to take him back to the break for the match. The training is paying off.

“A player like Paul Pogba would be missed by any team”

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer praised the 27-year-old midfielder at a post-match press conference: “We missed Paul. He’s been out for about two months and will miss any player like Paul Pogba’s team. He’s very important to us and he’s going to give us a big boost. He makes a difference.” Too big for us. Obviously we’re very happy to qualify. “

In the opposing camp, Paul Pogba’s performance has also been praised, and not just by any player, Zlatan Ibrahimovic. After returning from injury as well, the Swede bowed to the one who succeeded in the place where he himself had failed Thursday night: “Everyone knows how strong he is, this is not a secret. He is not strong, he is very strong.” Compliments from him were so rare that it underlines the importance of Paul Pogba’s comeback in this game. Summoned in Didier Deschamps’ final roster ahead of the European Championships, the French international is back in shape at the best time.
