Laul: The best chance of a Swedish club teams had in a very long time – Aftonbladet

Malmo FF need not apologize for the visit to Austria.

1-2 is not about perfect conditions before the return, then at least a good opportunity for that Champions League -avancemanget that Swedish soccer waited for so long.

Exactly what the club who MFF encounter in this playoff message units is not easy to sort out.

In the stands kept the home fans up a red flag that said “Let’s go Red Bulls.”

According to the European football association UEFA’s FC Salzburg apply.

They themselves have thus diluted the name of a known grog timber, so we are doing well to it: FC Vodka Red Bull Salzburg.

Team coach has a name on the other hand should not joke about: His name is Adolf Hutter.

The conditions in advance:

Football Association dedicated to promoting energy drinks have a playing squad valued five times as high as the venerable football club from Malmö. When it comes to the clubs’ respective sales Austrians are eight times as large.

Everything better than a 3-0 loss away from home, would therefore be a favorable outcome of the reigning Swedish champions. And losing 3-0 showed MFF directly that they would not do by stepping on and hunt out a corner for a button minutes.

Still, it was 1-0 to the home side after quarter.

Heavy back printed

It was due to:

… that Markus Rosenberg failed to get the ball into the net from eight yards and almost open goal after a windup where Simon Kroon, Isaac Kiese Thelin and Emil Forsberg showed Champions League class. Where should the ball up in the roof of the net, Markus.

… that Forsberg did not clear away a tangled corner situation that my jaw Franz Schiemer could then straight into. Where should the ball up in the stands, Emil.

Exactly this, we have seen so many times in recent years: Swedish law keeps the game well up there on the pitch but is revealed in the penalty areas.

This time, there were other differences too. The Austrians played with fewer crackdown, had a significantly higher ball speed and took far many more maxlöpningar both offensively and in the high pres game.

Periodically was MFF heavily back printed, especially had right-back Anton Tinnerholm tough against Senegalese Sadio Mane while Ricardinho struck off ball after ball on the other edge.

But Rosenberg and Kiese Thelin is a wise forwardsduo, and given how high up Vodka Red Bull stepped with the team, was alive the idea of ​​a new open MFF chance all the time, cheered on by the light blue of the seats whose chants broke through the home noise:

“We follow our blue team, from Munich to Solna. When the road may seem long as you hear our song …”.

We can see it as a little appetizer for what it will thunder, shake and vibrate at the Swedbank stadium in a week.

For the second half came Malmö out with an idea that seemed to act about getting the tempo, mute the intensity, not give the ball away just as quickly.

It went well … like that.

Move forces

The trades continued to hail against Robin Olsen in MFF-goal that had been rescued by posts and crossbar three times in just the first 45 minutes.

Once there was a fixed situation that resulted, this time a free kick from captain and Spanish Striker Jonathan Soriano who went through the post and the goal when Kiese Thelin writhed from the ball into the wall as if it was a friendly match with the youth team. A big question mark also for the goalkeeper Olsen had placed the wall in addition.

is manageable 0-2, 0-3, and everything would be over.

One of Malmö’s strengths include a broad anti- and a wise Norwegians coach. With half an hour left picked out Åge Hareide Isaac Kiese Thelin and gave Magnus Eriksson a fair chance to get help. Eriksson’s appearances helped MFF back into the game at the same time as Vodka Red Bull’s advantage relieved.

If it were not for that Kroon and Rosenberg again been a little too indecisive in the penalty area had it there so very important away goal reached by MFF- force, now it came after an invitation by the goalkeeper Péter Gulásci, there is absolutely no sweep but he was disturbed by Schiemer central defender and the ball fell down in front of Emil Forsberg and 2-1-reduction was a fact in the 90th minute.

A better result could not ask for and that everything is possible before the return is not just wishful thinking from the MFF and their supporters without a reasonable claim.

In the next week it is time for the Stockholm sports editors to move forces south and upload properly for the best chance of a Swedish club teams had in a very long time to reach the Champions League.
