Man Utd striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic: He jumped into my elbow

Manchester United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic pleaded his innocence after clashing with Bournemouth defender Tyrone Mings.

Ibrahimovic claimed Mings jumped "into my elbow" and the Bournemouth defender denied deliberately stamping on the Swedish star's head during a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford.

"Listen, what happens on the field stays on the field," Ibrahimovic told BBC Sport.

"I'm not someone who attacks someone off the field. You have the TV, you can see the images. I jump up and jump high and he (Mings) jumps into my elbow.

"It is not my intention to hurt someone. I didn't know about the stamping on the head, if it was him it was him."
