I dreamt about scoring in the final: Mkhitaryan

Henrikh Mkhitaryan, captain of Armenia’s national football team and midfielder of Manchester United, commented on his goal in the Europa League final, which secured the Reds’ victory against Ajax.

“I am thankful to my teammates because I’ve scored so many goals due to them. I am happy that I scored a goal in the final. After the Celta match I was dreaming every day about scoring a goal in the final.

And I succeeded thanks to my teammates”, Mkhitaryan said. Manchester won 2:0. Manchester United claimed their second major trophy of the season and secured Champions League football as they overcame Ajax to win the Europa League final in Stockholm, BBC reports.

Paul Pogba’s deflected shot put them ahead in the 18th minute and Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s sixth Europa League goal of the campaign, flicked in from Chris Smalling’s header at a corner, confirmed they would add to the EFL Cup won against Southampton earlier this season.
