The Swede's injury appeared to be severe, but the left-back is optimistic his team-mate won't be out long
Alarm bells were ringing when Zlatan Ibrahimovic went down with a gruesome-looking knee injury Thursday, but his team-mate Luke Shaw says the Swede was walking around the changing room after the match.
Manchester United's top scorer on the season landed awkwardly near the end of regulation in the Europa League quarter-final second leg against Anderlecht.
The 35-year-old limped off the pitch and manager Jose Mourinho said after the game that he thought the news was " fairly negative ."
However, Luke Shaw was much more optimistic, telling reporters: "He's fine. He was walking around in the changing room."
Marcus Rashford went on to score an extra-time winner for United, who advanced to the semi-final with a 3-2 aggregate success.
Ibrahimovic has scored 28 goals in all competitions this season, including five strikes in the Europa.

Big London blokes. “We’re gonna win the league,” the Chelsea supporters bellowed from the cramped away section at rickety old Goodison Park. Their team had just inflicted upon Everton only their second home defeat of the season and their heaviest loss since the 5-0 drubbing handed out to them in November by Antonio Conte’s men. That win came fifth in a sequence of 13 in succession, a run that earned Chelsea 39 points out of 39. That run had put the crucial momentum behind Chelsea this season and handed them the initiative in the title race. They've never surrendered it. Their form has been less superhuman since then. They dropped points in five of their next 13 fixtures but the gap had become insurmountable. Conte maintained his focus on the tasks at hand

Why Ronaldo Didn’t Celebrate His Hattrick Against Atletico Madrid With His Teammates Real Madrid Captain, Sergio Ramos has revealed Cristiano Ronaldo was not around to celebrate his hat-trick in the 3-0 win over Atletico Madrid because he was forced to take a random drug test.
