Ibrahimovic praises former Man Utd team-mate Pogba after World Cup final display
The much-maligned midfielder was influential in his country’s World Cup win, leading Zlatan to stand up for his old team-mate
Zlatan Ibrahimovic was full of praise for Paul Pogba’s performance for France in Sunday’s World Cup final.
Midfielder Pogba scored a fine second-half goal as Les Bleus defeated Croatia 4-2 in Moscow to clinch their second title.
And after a season in which Pogba’s displays for Manchester United were often scrutinised, Ibrahimovic was quick to highlight his former Old Trafford team-mate’s display.
“Let them talk, but the game speaks for itself,” Ibrahimovic posted on Twitter, tagging Pogba alongside a picture of him holding the World Cup trophy.
