Pogba’s shocking second-half goal was the match decider and Solskjaer has now hailed the Frenchman.
“We started quite slow but after they scored the first goal I felt we played better. We had to wake up quickly and after that we played well,” he said.
“We rarely do offsides, we must follow the run. We had not woken up but still a good reaction.
“Stunning strike by Paul and we had some good chances to finish the game off but of course we did not take them.

“That is why he is Paul, keeping him match fit and and he is right now. He played well.”

“We just have to win each game that comes along. It is an unpredictable season for anybody.”
Paul Pogba himself was also excited after the match.
“It was a difficult game and a key win,” he said.
“We knew it won’t be easy. They press well and stayed compact. We had to come back from behind and we needed to win.
“I played the ball well. I didn’t expect it to score with my left foot like that.
“It was beautiful and am important win. It is not my favourite goal ever but it was magical.”
