Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has broken his silence since France’s Euro 2020 elimination.
The tournament favourites crashed out of the European Championship following a 5-4 penalty shootout defeat by Switzerland in the last 16 on Monday night.
Pogba posted to social media: “Sometimes football can be cruel… cruel and also beautiful.
“Yesterday, the game brought us sadness but happiness to our opponents. That’s the beauty of football.
“Of course we all wished that we could have had a positive result.
“Thank you so much to all of our fans across the globe. It was beautiful to see you, to hear you, and to celebrate with you.
“You gave us hope and joy throughout all of our games. We will keep our heads up and we will come back stronger.
“Finally, I want to wish congratulations to Switzerland.”
