Paul Pogba’s first touch a thing of beauty as Manchester United ace stays cool for on-camera prank
- Man United star pelted with footballs by teammate from long range while giving interview
- But midfielder shows incredible skill to get the last laugh over training ground prankster
Even when he is under bombardment from footballs while being filmed for an interview, Paul Pogba is coolness personified.
After joining up with the rest of the Manchester United squad in Dubai for a warm-weather training camp, Pogba sat down to speak to the club’s in-house media channel MUTV at the side of the pitch on Wednesday.
Ashley Young then tried to embarrass his teammate mid-interview, with the time-worn training ground tradition of belting a football at someone when they’re on camera.
You’ve usually only got two options – get the heck out of dodge, or get smacked by the ball as all your teammates roll around in fits of laughter.
“This one’s coming your way,” came the call from the MUTV interviewer, with Pogba interrupting his answer and looking to his left to see an incoming missile from Young, before quickly putting his hands up to shield himself from the ball.
