He was proved right, too, with Zlatan taking over, starting the scoring early on with a rocket of a free kick from distance flying past a helpless Fraser Forster.Rooney and Mourinho watched Man United win from the sidelineThe lofty striker had an odd sparring partner for the game, with Manolo Gabbiadini almost stealing the show with a double, and nearly a hat-trick if it wasn’t for a questionable offside.
Instead though, Jesse Lingard’s goal cancelled out his two efforts, before Zlatan nodded home with just minutes to spare in normal time. The Swede was again crucial in United’s winning Europa League run with 28 goals in all competitions for the season, although that would be their last trophy for far too long.He eventually left halfway through the following season, and United turned to mediocrity without his inspiration.
