LONDON -- Three thoughts from Manchester United's 3-2 victory over Southampton at Wembley Stadium, which sees Jose Mourinho's side lift the EFL Cup trophy.
1. Manchester United win the EFL Cup
Where would Manchester United be without Zlatan Ibrahimovic? It's a question that, when this season as a whole is considered, might be tough to answer. But on this occasion, they would be without the EFL Cup, won in a thrilling encounter against an excellent Southampton side at Wembley.
Ibrahimovic scored twice -- one a brilliant free kick, the other a header -- in United's 3-2 victory, a game in which their assorted defensive frailties were exposed but made moot by the big Swede.
