Pogba takes grieving Man U to Europa triumph

Stockholm : Paul Pogba propelled Manchester United towards a 2-0 victory over Ajax in a Europa League final rendered heavy with emotion by this week’s terror attack in Manchester. A night that began with a moment of silence, then applause, in memory of the 22 people who died at Manchester Arena on Monday ended with United completing their trophy collection through goals from Pogba and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.  Victory enabled United manager Jose Mourinho to bring his maiden Old Trafford season to a successful conclusion. He had already guided United to glory in the League Cup and despite a sixth-place finish in the Premier League, success in the Europa League means his side will return to the Champions League next season. United became only the fifth club — after Juventus, Ajax, Bayern Munich and Chelsea — to have won the Champions League, the Europa League and the now defunct European Cup Winners’ Cup.
