Haven't enjoyed a friendly so much for ages. OMG.

Damn, stream died and I missed that one. Still, quite the hattrick.
And is this how Sweden are going to roll from now on?

You've gotta see the 4th IK!

Just caught a replay, lol. And lol at all of centurion Stevie's questions being about Zlatan!

And I guess that's the end of the Zlatan debate

My word that's astonishing

the problem with not watching England friendlies is that once every 200 matches something worth seeing happens

As with most balls that are struck with the foot, yes.
― boxall, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 21:43 (eleven years ago) link
Do you think he meant it?
― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 21:43 (eleven years ago) link
coach always said to put it on goal and good things would happen
― dansplaining (dan m), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 21:45 (eleven years ago) link
of course that was ice hockey
that's genuinely one of the best goals of all time
― Number None, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 21:45 (eleven years ago) link
i bet if you watch all of sweden's friendlies he has done that 99 times before one finally went in
― Roberto Spiralli, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 21:51 (eleven years ago) link
done it when it mattered tho
in the 91st min when already winning a meaningless friendly against crappy opposition

To be fair to the lad, how often can the opportunity possibly arise?
― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 21:56 (eleven years ago) link
This is both true and also a kinda stupid thing to say
Hodgson - Ibrahimovic being kept on cost us a result.
― pandemic, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 22:25 (eleven years ago) link
still doesn't top trevor sinclair for me.
joe hart tho, love seeing him fail.
― Heterocyclic ring ring (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 22:46 (eleven years ago) link
actually does get better on repeated viewings, in terms of the technique.
― Heterocyclic ring ring (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 22:49 (eleven years ago) link
tho still not better than john barnes v blackburn, obviously.
ibrahimovic is a pile of shit, cowardly flash waster who never performs when it matters and is labelled "unorthodox" cos he can't play basic football. most overrated player i can think of.

these crucial goals against england in a friendly have vindicated you, as has his rise to the pinnacle of european football with paris saint germain.
― Heterocyclic ring ring (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 22:54 (eleven years ago) link
it were good but nothing beats tricky trev's
― r|t|c, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 22:56 (eleven years ago) link
i actually do think trev's was better, just the timing involved and the power, and the fact he had to beat a keeper. not to play down that goal tonight, it was amazing.
― Heterocyclic ring ring (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 22:57 (eleven years ago) link
yeah well it's not like you've been posting about his enviable serie a, ligue 1 or even la liga record when he has been doing well
dude has been at the top level of european fitba for 9 seasons but like drogba has really reached another level in his 30s
― NAMES A CUNTZ FAE RENFRA (Nilmar Honorato da Silva), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:00 (eleven years ago) link
I wouldn't really compare the two. It's the improvised nature of Zlatan's that makes it so special
― Number None, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:01 (eleven years ago) link
nice goal but no goalkeeper so sinclair vs qpr was better, as was rivaldo v valencia, ronaldinho v villareal and one or two othersa lot better than twp vs citeh tho
― NAMES A CUNTZ FAE RENFRA (Nilmar Honorato da Silva), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:03 (eleven years ago) link
the fact that there's no keeper is the whole point
― Number None, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:04 (eleven years ago) link
oh wow science
― NAMES A CUNTZ FAE RENFRA (Nilmar Honorato da Silva), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:06 (eleven years ago) link
this wasn't 'improvised', it was a pretty obvious option to take for a player who has the technique to execute
'improvised' might apply to the ronaldinho goal vs chelsea in 2004/5
― NAMES A CUNTZ FAE RENFRA (Nilmar Honorato da Silva), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:07 (eleven years ago) link
lobbing a keeper who's foolishly rushed out of goal is one of the best sights in football. Combine that with the speed of thought and athleticism required to execute the shot and that's what makes it one of the best goals ever. So yeah, science
― Number None, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:09 (eleven years ago) link
yes, it was so obvious
― Number None, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:10 (eleven years ago) link
the more i watch it, the more ludicrous hart's behaviour seems. surely that header is for the defender to attempt?
― Heterocyclic ring ring (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:10 (eleven years ago) link
lol oh god u were serious with best goalz ever
― NAMES A CUNTZ FAE RENFRA (Nilmar Honorato da Silva), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:12 (eleven years ago) link
If you disregard the occasion, it is one of the best goals ever
― Number None, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:14 (eleven years ago) link
yeah well that's why maradona v england is 10x better than messi v getafe, but even abstracted from context it's not THAT amazing
taison v whoever the other day was more technically difficult
i mean we should be able to appreciate zlatan applying a sublime fourth goal coup de grace to hart and shawx without elevating it to the pantheon
― NAMES A CUNTZ FAE RENFRA (Nilmar Honorato da Silva), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:20 (eleven years ago) link
There's plenty of room in my personal pantheon. This goal goes on the "holy shit, i've never seen anyone do that before" plinth
― Number None, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:28 (eleven years ago) link
It's amazing cos I've never seen anyone score that exact goal before. Taison goal has been done many a time whether it's 'technically' more difficult or whatever.
― pandemic, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:28 (eleven years ago) link
ha xp
― pandemic, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:29 (eleven years ago) link
clearly we need to get more stupid rushing goalkeepers like hart and pyatov and this will become a more regular occurence
― NAMES A CUNTZ FAE RENFRA (Nilmar Honorato da Silva), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:30 (eleven years ago) link
are you joking? Stupid rushing goalkeepers are practical at epidemic proportions.
― pandemic, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:31 (eleven years ago) link
practically
Remember when Neuer tried this for Schalke v Inter, connected cleanly and headed the ball past halfway, and still saw it volleyed over his head by Stankovic? Love that goal.
― boxall, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 23:33 (eleven years ago) link
yeah that was a great goal
