Single worst performance I have EVER seen in a world cup game. Is Allback actually meant ot be a striker or what???? If they qualify after this embarassing performance it's the biggest travesty in footballing history.

Against a bunch of part-time no-hopers and washed up former pros, with a ONE MAN ADVANTAGE FOR HALF THE DAMN GAME, they still barely get a shot on goal. Oh, except for Allback, who is obviously abysmal. Oh, it's nice that Jonson can't complete a pass over a distance of about ten feet to a player in the 6 yard box with an open goal, either. Pathetic.

Trinidad were just immense but some of the crossing and finishing from Sweden was barely of a reasonable amateur standard.

And what does Ibrahimovic do, out of interest? Every time I see him for Sweden or Juventus, he seems to trap the ball, dribble down a blind alley, do some stupid tricks and then try some flick which gives possession away. I think I've seen him play about 10 times and I've never seen him score or have a vaguely decent game. He had so much ball (and space) in this game and did NOTHING with it.

Henrik Larsson is finished too. 3 minutes stoppage time at the end of the 2nd half was an absolute joke as well, when there'd been at least 5 relatively lengthy injury stoppages and 6 subs.

Have they trained or played football in the last year??? They couldn't even complete a 4 yard pass by the end of the game.

FUCK SWEDEN.

Rant over.

That game was unbelievable. Has anyone checked on our resident Swedes to make sure they haven't done something rash?

Immense performance by Trinidad, mind you, one of the best defensive performances in world cup history. But, they're mostly amateurs or failed lower league pros, and, ermmm, they had 10 men

I know they had some bad warm up performances, but Sweden looked so unprepared it was unbelievable, like half the players didn't know each other.

I was just pissed because I had them at 1-0, 2-0 or 3-0 and when Trinidad went to 10 men I was already counting my $250 .... Damn.

i edited the title so that the disappointing result was not obvious to people (like me) who DVRed it and haven't watched it yet.

specifically, i added the opponent and removed "rant". monk, please feel free to change it back if you think these edits are unwarranted.
