The Spanish playmaker started the final at the Friends Arena in Stockholm as goals from Paul Pogba and Henrikh Mkhitaryan ensured we beat Ajax and claimed the only piece of silverware missing from the Old Trafford trophy cabinet.
Our victory came four years after Mata had first experienced success in the competition with former club Chelsea and he’s eager for more this time around.
“It was the first time the club won this tournament and it was great to beat an Ajax side, who went on to be a great team in the following years,” said Mata, in an interview with UEFA.
