Another match-winning performance from Zlatan Ibrahimovic had the enigmatic Manchester United forward joking that he is in fact getting younger as the years go by.
Relating himself to popular fictional character Benjamin Button, the Swede was in good form after a goal and assist helped the Red Devils past Sunderland on Sunday.
"I train hard, I keep focusing, I believe in what I do," Ibrahimovic told reporters. "It seems like the older I get the more intelligent I get. You don't waste so much energy.
"I feel like Benjamin Button, I was born old and I will die young."
The 3-0 win at the Stadium of Light kept alive United's top-four hopes ahead of next weekend's game against Premier League leaders Chelsea.
