MING JUMPED INTO MY ELBOW SAYS IBRAHIMOVIC

Sweden legendary Manchester United forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic denied deliberately elbowing Tyrone Mings in the 1-1 draw at Old Trafford, saying the Bournemouth defender "jumped into my elbow."
Ibrahimovic -- who saw a second-half penalty saved by Artur Boruc as United failed to make the most of a series of chances -- clashed with Mings at the end of the first half.
Mings slid in on Wayne Rooney and then stamped on Ibrahimovic, who appeared to elbow the defender in the face at a corner seconds later. Mings has denied that he intentionally stamped on the striker.
Both avoided red cards from referee Kevin Friend, with Ibrahimovic already in the book for dissent after the decision to award the penalty from which Bournemouth had levelled.
But the United man told the BBC: "Listen, what happens on the field stays on the field.
"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 jumps into my elbow."
