Someone Rick-Rolled Adidas' Paul Pogba Man U Intro Video And It's Perfect
Paul Pogba's Manchester United introduction video was sweet when it was Pogba and "Stormzy", but it's even better when it's Pogba and Rick Astley.

Besides that segment, we wonder how Villa interacted with the rest of the Sesame Street crew. He probably thought Big Bird was Zlatan.
