Both Sweden and the Swiss are tough to beat
Hows this game been?
Crap?
Crap?
What a fecking idiot.
Haha, yeah.
But at least we're creating chances.I believe so unless they under-estimate their opponents like they did vs Iceland. Really slow and boring game this. How the Swiss managed to br 6th on FIFAS ranking is beyond me. Swedens attackers are a really, really bad.
Think Columbia will be the biggest test personally. No-one can be discounted this WC though, you’re right!
Good game so far, seems I'm the only one thinking so here.
The onion knight.
The effort is there, the quality is lacking.
Louis saha in the house.
Pretty poor tbh. They're trying but really lacking in technique. Looks like a championship game at times.
Would it be considered arrogant or disgracefully smug of me to say I'd rather face Switzerland if we beat Colombia tonight?
Sweden are always a difficult game for us.
A couple of sloppy, misplaced passes from both sides. The Swiss are quicker to pounce and I think that may decide in the end.
Sweden's only attack and I mean ONLY are counters and set pieces. I haven't seen them string 5 decent passes in a row yet in this WC. Let them hold the ball and break and you win guaranteed.
The finishing lool
Can they both be eliminated? This is cack.
This is as interesting as watching Fulham play Newcastle.
Sweden would be 4-0 up if the goals were in row 117.
Switzerland seem to be the better side but we always seem to do well against Switzerland where as Sweden are a bit of a bogey side.
Marcus Berg always looks like he won his spot in the team by entering a nationwide raffle.
But seriously even jesper would have scored todayIt's worse... Terrible football. The Swiss have learned Swedens play and don't commit forward because of their breaks. Sweden keep 10 men in their box and wait for the counter. This is the result of that.
Every fecking time Forsberg has a chance to go on the break he gets tugged at and impeded. The ref really needs to start getting his cards out for the Swiss.
Happy to see the score is 0-0 and that the first half was apparently crap, as I missed it.
If there's one thing that the refs have been bad at this WC are these blatant yellow cards that players are getting away with.
Get your cards out for the lads!
Get your cards out get your cards out get your cards out for the Swiss! Geeeet your cards out for the Swiss!
Based on the quality Sweden have shown in finishing, the most recent odds on Berg scoring: 66/1. The odds on a Zlatan halfway volley going in: 12/1
Sweden are only slightly better than that Greek team that bored their way to Euro champs.
No quality whatsoever in this game.
Haha, yeah.
The only chances that matter are the ones put away. It only takes one. We need a goal!
10 men in the box? Don’t know what match you’re watching but this is about Swe-Swi. Wouldn’t say there are any 10 men in the box.
Finishing and decision making in the final third in this game.... Terrible.
Anyone noticed how much less VAR involvement there is in the round of 16?
Good lord Sweden
This is a pathetic game and feck Mexico for not turning up against sweden.
The image quality is best thing for me. That's it.
