Watch: Paul Pogba’s outrageous piece of skill in France draw with USA
France may not have set the world alight in their 1-1 draw with the USA – but Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba did provide a reminder of his class with one moment of magic.
The US, who will not be at this summer’s World Cup in Russia, fielded a young side in Lyon and took a surprise lead in the 44th minute through Julian Green’s goal.
Les Bleus were booed and whistled by sections of the crowd as they left the field at half-time, and were saved a shock defeat by Kylian Mbappe’s equaliser with 12 minutes left.
Pogba did come close in the first half, hitting the post, and also produced one moment which made us drool thanks to some brilliant skill.
The 25-year-old faces a big tournament having endured an inconsistent two years at Old Trafford – more moments like this will help.
