Pogba house burgled during Manchester United 1-0 defeat
Burglars broke into French player Paul Pogba's house while his babies were asleep alone in their bedroom.
Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba revealed Wednesday that his house was burgled during his club's Champions League defeat against Atletico Madrid while his children were asleep in their bedroom.
Pogba discovered that he had been burgled just minutes after United lost 1-0 to Atletico on Tuesday, crashing out of the competition 2-1 on aggregate.
The France World Cup winner, who played as a second-half substitute against Atletico, was stunned to learn of the break-in, which happened while his wife Maria Zulay Salaues was at Old Trafford watching the match.
"Last night our family's worst nightmare was realized when our home was broken into and burglarized while our babies were sleeping in their bedroom," he wrote on Twitter.
The French said, that the burglars "were in our home for less than five minutes but in that time they took from us something more valuable than anything we had in our home... our sense of safety and security."

"My wife and I rushed home not knowing if our children were safe and unharmed," he added.
Pogba expressed that "as a father, there is no feeling worse in this world than not being there to protect your children and I sincerely hope that no one ever has to feel what I felt last night."
"It is for this reason that I would like to offer a reward for anyone who has a clue to help us," he ended his words.
