Abrahams touch and overall play is 100% random. I bet he's surprised himself to see what way the ball goes when he makes a touch

Lukaku could have had 15+ goals if we are giving him the kind of service his adversaries get.

He's only 31... wtf. Before this call up I thought he was retired
Yup, but he is doing a great season for Lokomotiv, Adrien cannot play, João Mário doesn't play much, while Sanches, well, you know what I mean :lol:

Yeah, it's also the only televised match over here atm.
That name Ciman, probably plays now in MLS, no? If so, not strange, defense level in MLS is chaotic.

Load of players who want to prove themselves to the manager, instead of ones who think they have a right to be picked.
There are a few of them (Pickford, Trippier and Loftus Cheek) who have been much better tonight than I've ever seen in white shirts from the men ahead of them. Loftus-Cheek in particular has been superb.

Nevermind, Giroud scores a second.

RLC has a bit of Pogba about him. Wants to play and try things.

Maybe got it wrong, Italy will have to perform at his best in the second leg.

This Italy side looks devoid of ideas going forward.

Sweden can qualify with some concentration in second leg.

Italy's manager reminds me of Hodgson. He's as clueless as him.
Massive downgrade on Conte, starting to believe Italy is in trouble, if it keeps like this, if Sweden scores 1 goal in Italy, they will need 3...

It's always stupid to get those 70 years old managers for national teams. Don't know what they expect from this.

Bizarre tactics from Ventura tonight. Trying to bypass midfield and go straight to the strikers - that’s fine if you’ve got Vieri up top, less so with the current mob. There’s been a big hole in the park all night in their no10 position. No wonder their final ball has been so scrappy.

Good game by Sweden, Lindelof was fecking terrible though. Mourinho was present at the ground. Our coaching is awesome, we can get through to the World Cup with some luck.

Deserved win for Sweden! :)
Italy were rubbish in attack. Had a couple decent chances though. Lindelöf did okay. Darmian was pretty good.
