AC Milan striker Ibrahimovic on victory over Roma: Every now and then, I pull a surprise!!

AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic was delighted with his role in their victory over Roma.

Ibrahimovic scored one and won the penalty for Milan's second in the 2-1 win.

“It was a great performance, we played with a lot of confidence and our style," Ibrahimovic told DAZN.

“We knew it wasn't easy, Roma were unbeaten at home this season, but we played really well and must continue with this belief and tempo."

The Swede added: “Every now and then, I pull a surprise!! You must always give it a go, as failure is part of success, so you keep trying."

On the jeers of Roma fans, Ibrahimovic said: "I need the jeers, the more they jeer, the more alive I feel. Adrenaline brings so much. We want to win, especially when playing such a big game and a man down. We showed we've all got character and can suffer under pressure too. The lads put in a great performance."
