‘He’s so good’- Super Eagles midfielder raves about Pogba’s performance against Portugal

The Manchester United midfielder was impressive for the World Cup winners on Wednesday night, and that has earned him praises from a Nigerian international

Super Eagles star Joe Aribo could not get enough of Paul Pogba’s performance for France in their Euro 2020 clash against Portugal on Wednesday night.

The world champions played out a thrilling 2-2 draw with the defending champions in their final Group F encounter at the Puskás Aréna.

Although Karim Benzema picked up the man of the match after scoring the two goals for France, Pogba also stood out for the world champions.

The Manchester United star created the assist for Benzema’s second goal and was unlucky not to score the winner after his shot was tipped unto the bar by Portugal’s Rui Patricio.

His display last night drew praises from Aribo, who said he could watch the former Juventus man all day. The Rangers midfielder took to his Twitter account rave about Pogba’s performances.

“Could honestly watch Pogba all day, He’s so good,” Aribo said on his Twitter page.

Pogba will hope to continue his impressive form when France take on Switzerland in their round of 16 match on Monday.
