― Reuters picSTOCKHOLM, May 25 ― Manchester United's Paul Pogba and Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored a goal in each half as their team comfortably outclassed Ajax Amsterdam to win an emotional Europa League final 2-0 and qualify for the group stages of the Champions League.

Mourinho has now won 12 out of 14 cup finals in his career, including all four European finals he has been involved in, and the team produced the type of clinical display with which his sides have always been renowned.

Mourinho's second Champions League victory was with Inter-milan in 2010.

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho on the win and the events in Manchester on Monday night: "If we could, we would change obviously the people's lives for this cup - immediately, we wouldn't think twice. We've done it, and we're proud", said Pogba.

Speaking of transfers in the summer, Mourinho said: "Ed Woodward has my list, what I want, what I would like for more than two months". "People say we've had a bad season but the prize is great and we've done it now". Kick-off is set for 19:45 BST, so stick with us until then as we build up to the game, with team news expected about an hour before the start. Beating Legia Warsaw and Copenhagen to reach the last eight, overseeing Schalke in the quarter-finals saw Europe sit up and take notice, before a commanding 4-1 win over Lyon in the first leg of their semi-final really put them in the driving seat for a final place.

Manchester United celebrate with the trophy after winning the Europa League. We were much stronger than them.

Spain worldwide Juan Mata expressed his delight at helping United land the only major trophy missing from the club's honours, but his thoughts were also primarily with those affected by the shocking events in Manchester.

"It means the last piece in the puzzle", Mourinho said, "a club with every trophy in the world of football".

"I'm disappointed because you play finals to win them. They're not taking it away from us". A right-wing corner was headed down by Chris Smalling, and Mkhitaryan reacted quickest with a very smart finish.
