In 1958, Sweden blossomed in the kingdom of soccer and returned home in glory as the world's second-place finisher. However, after the splendor, there were 36 years of silence. Bryan, Darien and other famous players have helped it to the third, but the Nordic football world seems to be caught in the vortex of the "lost 30 years". Even the likes of Ibrahim Mogwai couldn't save the day, and international results were equally dismal. Fortunately, the rise of new stars such as Joklis, Guluszewski and Aleksandr Ishak has injected new hope into Swedish soccer.
In recent years, Sweden's performance in the international arena has been unsatisfactory, missing the World Cup and UEFA Europa League final week consecutively, and even suffering relegation in the Europa League, forcing them to play in the third tier, Group C. But just at this time, the Nordic lions awakened! In February of this year, Denmark's famous manager, Mr. Thomasson, was appointed to lead the team back on track. In the past six matches, Thomason's tactical adjustments have yielded remarkable results, with the team winning five and losing one.
Thomason's exceptional leadership is just one of the keys to Sweden's rise. Stadion striker Joklis is gritty as hell, scoring nine goals and contributing five assists in the Europa League. His partner, Aleksandar Ishak, scored 21 goals in the Premier League last season and has been equally impressive for Newcastle this season, scoring four goals in nine league games. Tottenham's attacking midfielder Galuszewski is a key part of the "Snow Trio".
With these talented players linking up, Sweden is expected to make a comeback in European ball and return to the final week of international competitions.
