Zlatan Ibrahimovic hails "fantastic" Manchester United win

Zlatan Ibrahimovic hails "fantastic" win

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has revealed his delight after helping Manchester United to a 2-0 victory over West Bromwich Albion in the Premier League on Saturday night.

The experienced forward netted twice at The Hawthorns as Man United recorded their third straight league victory and moved to within four points of second spot in the Premier League table.

Ibrahimovic has said that his side were prepared for "a difficult game" against the Baggies and has praised his teammates following the two-goal success.

"It went good. It was a difficult game which we were prepared for. We said it would be more difficult than Crystal Palace and the guys did a fantastic job. This game we won as a collective," Ibrahimovic told BT Sport.

"I'm feeling good. At the end I was a little bit tired. When the team is doing good it is easier but the most important thing is the three points."

Man United, who remain sixth in England's top flight, will look to make it four straight league wins when they welcome Sunderland to Old Trafford on December 26.
