Man Utd ace Ibrahimovic: Rooney and I sorted penalties

Manchester United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has revealed he's the prime penalty taker.

The Swede converted for Friday's 2-0 win over Southampton.

Ibra admitted he had talked to his captain, Wayne Rooney, about who would shoot from 12 yards.

“We spoke like two weeks ago about it so there was no confusion," he said. “It was decided long before, it wasn't on the pitch."
