'I try to be the English guy... I need to practice to tackle without arms': Paul Pogba jokes he should NOT try and challenge at all after giving away dubious penalty for handball early on in Man United's thrashing of Roma

Paul Pogba has made light of the dubious penalty given against him during Manchester United's thrashing of Roma, joking that he should simply not try and tackle.

United have all-but sealed their spot in the Europa League final after hammering Serie A outfit Roma 6-2 at Old Trafford on Thursday night in the first leg of their semi-final tie.

However, United had to overcome a brief scare at Old Trafford in the rain, as Roma were 2-1 ahead at the break with Lorenzo Pellegrini converting from the penalty spot before Edin Dzeko added a second after Bruno Fernandes put the hosts in front.
