Both players had started on the bench as Jose Mourinho made some changes from the 4-0 win over Saint-Etienne but with the score at 1-1 in the second half they were both sent for.
The pair combined well for the winner as Pogba played an arching ball over the top with Ibrahimovic producing the first-time finish.
It was Pogba's fifth assist of the season and all five have come for Ibrahimovic, highlighting the relationship the pair have already struck up.
Pundits and United fans were quick to praise that understanding and despite a few late scares Ibrahimovic's goal sent United through to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.
