What Zlantan Ibrahimovic Did


Manchester United fans love what Zlatan Ibrahimovic did after the final whistle
Zlatan Ibrahimovic must have been devastated to be ruled out of Manchester United’s Europa League final against Ajax.

Not only was it against his former club, but it was played at the Friends Arena in Stockholm, in his native country of Sweden. Incidentally, the very first match at the stadium was marked by four goals from Zlatan - including a 40-yard overhead kick - against England.

Zlatan renamed the Friends Arena the 'Zlatan Arena' in an Instagram video on Wednesday night but he was in no fit shape to perform any overhead kicks this week. Instead, he rocked up to the stadium in a buggy as it transported him pitch side, crutches in hand.

Last month, the Swede underwent a knee operation to repair ligament damage in a bid to save his career.

And it seems as the operation has worked wonders.

'Ready for the final'

Earlier this week, Ibrahimovic posted a video of him walking in a swimming pool with the caption: “Ready for the final.”

What did he mean by that? Everyone knew he was never going to be fit for the match.

But, after United triumphed 2-0 thanks to goals from Paul Pogba and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, we soon realised what Zlatan had been training for.

Immediately after the final whistle, he found someone to give his crutches to before hobbling around the pitch to congratulate his teammates  - running past the likes of Marcos Rojo, Luke Shaw and Ashley Young who kept hold of their crutches.
