Sorry, first tournament goal since Euro 2004. During which competition, he missed a critical penalty, then he was non-existent during WC 2006, and he was only out for 7 months (mostly cause he pouted over being suspended for breaking team rules) , between September 06 and March 07.

Every match is important, but this match did not determine whether they go home or not... he's not a clutch player, at least, not yet. Maybe he'll become one this tournament.

Look, I just don't think the guy is a winner... he has a terrible attitude, is often prone to inconsistency, and in the past is a choke, especially for Sweden (who I do hope does well).
