Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored the winning goal for Manchester United in our 2-1 win over Leicester in the Community Shield. With just over five minutes remaining, Ibra leapt high in the penalty area to reach a Antonio Valencia cross and head past Kasper Schmeichel.

Following the game, Zlatan has talked about what it means to be a United player and win this game.

It feels amazing to win the first official game. I’ve been here a couple of weeks and I get to win my first trophy with United. I mean this is what we play for. We play for the trophies and I’m super happy and super excited for the goal – but especially for the win because it’s a trophy for the team. This is what we work hard for and sacrifice. When you can win it is even more amazing but all the credit to Leicester as well, because they played a good game and they had a fantastic last season. You can see it’s a strong team.

It feels good to be in Manchester United and this is what counts. My individual performances will come. We’re in the beginning and building up my physique, my conditioning, and I am yet to know the team-mates. When all these things are settled, things grow easily. You can then just play your game and enjoy. Things are coming together. We’re in the beginning and we’re just getting to know each other, especially with me. That is new and we won today and hopefully we can win more.
