AC Milan 0-1 Man United (AGG 1-2): Pogba's strike sends Red Devils to Europa League quarter-finals


AC
Manchester United have advanced to the quarter-finals of the Europa League following a 1-0 (2-1aggregate) victory against AC Milan.  United headed into the clash with a 1-1 draw, a match staged at Old Trafford in the first leg of the tournament. The first half ended in a goalless draw but Paul Pogba made an immediate impact after his introduction as he scored the only goal that separated the two teams. United took the lead in the 48th minute through Paul Pogba who had just come in two minutes before the goal. Fred did really well to make Milan panic with their clearance as Pogba collected, dummied to shoot to create a yard of space before dinking nonchalantly over Donnarumma for the vital away goal for United. Zlatan Ibrahimovic was brought in in the second half and came close to equalizing himself, but United were worthy winners.
