Ighalo, Mata bromance continues after Manchester United Europa League win

Odion Ighalo's arrival on loan from Shanghai Shenhua has seen him hit the ground running which has aided Manchester United's progress in the Europa League and FA Cup, thanks partly to the growing bond with Juan Mata.

Of the four goals the Nigerian has scored in the aforementioned competitions, Mata has had a hand in two.

The first was Ighalo's maiden goal in the 5-0 bashing of Club Brugge in the Europa League Round of 32 second leg, while the second came in United's 3-0 FA Cup fifth round win at Derby County.
