PBP: Sweden vs England: June 15 - NSC Olimpiyskiy [R]

Walcott swerved one in from 26 yards outside the box. Hart knew nothing about it.

Also, the first Sweden goal is being called a Glen Johnson OG.

 

Back online -- Sweden really looking England's equal here. This is a cracker.

 

What a blast by Ibra. He's really wanting it.

And wasn't that a two-footed lunge by Terry? Went unremarked...

 

THAT IS NUTS!!!
Wellbeck from Walcott!!!

With the falling back flick trip goal!!

 

goal of the tournament so far !!!!

 

Ohhhhhhhhhhh! Danny Welbeck!

2-3!

F*** off Ibrahimović!

 

Great goal!

Good to see some fast, less 'physical' players making the difference.

 

God Sakes Sweden

 

Just an astonishing play from Theo. Really coming good after all that hype and heartache.

And words fail re: the finish. What. Ever!
Fantastic!

 

Wow, this has been a great game. I want Sweden to win, but damn... those were some pretty goals by England

 

FT: 2-3

Sweden are out. Bye-bye Ibrahimović!

 

Who saw 3 goals coming out of this England side? And it could easily have been more.

Shocking. Thrilling. Perhaps not World Beating, but damn entertaining.

Here's hoping they come out with confidence against the Ukraine -- should be fun.

 

cant wait until i see another arrogant cocky idiot out of the tournament after two days ( and i think we all know who he is )

 

good game, england were totally outclassed, shame sweden wont be going through as they play football,

 

Big deal, Ukraine put 2 past Sweden too.

 

Who? Ronaldo?

 

john terry?

 

Sorry a neighbor was over visiting so watched it muted but Theo's goal... was that a deflection? Doesn't seem to have deflected on numerous replays.

 

Ibra may be a gigantic prick, and beyond cocky, but I thought he played quite well in these two matches. He created the first goal, and scored in the last match and set up Elmander for what should have been the equalizer. I did not see him give up and pout.

He did have the break away where perhaps laying off to Elmander was a better option than going it alone. But how many great goals have we seen from him going it alone? Hard to fault him for doing what has made him a great goalscorer.

 

He he, would be awesome if they lost to Ukraine lol

 

The Guardian play-by-play called it a deflection.
I personally could not tell one way or the other. But it did have a certain arc to that would indicate a deflection. I'm sure we'll see the super slo-mo a few more times.

 

Also, Roy is going to be breaking out his Wile. E. Coyote: Genius cards.
Starting Carroll.
Boom: Goal.
Introducing Theo.
Boom: Goal. Assist. Epic comeback.
