Man United's Zlatan Ibrahimovic nets Premier League's 25,000th goal

Manchester United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic ended a run of 609 minutes without scoring in the Premier League when he bagged the team's second against Swansea on Sunday.

His goal gave Manchester United a 2-0 lead 21 minutes in, but even more important, it marked the 25,000th goal scored in the Premier League since its inception in 1992. Here's how Twitter reacted:

Asked whether he was aware he had scored the 25,000th goal in Premier League history, Ibrahimovic replied: "Ah, no I wasn't. I thought that was only me who had scored 25,000."

It's only a matter of time before that 30,000th goal comes up -- perhaps even sooner if Paul Pogba and Zlatan stay together in the Premier League.
