Zlatan demoralizes stubborn Greeks

Zlatan Ibrahimovic does not score typical goals. No poke ins or deflections. When he scores, it's truly a work of art. His right footed torpedo from the left side of the pitch was unstoppable.

It looked like it would be headed for another France/Romanianesque dull draw. The Greek lacked ambition. They always had ten men behind the ball.

It did take a Zlatan moment of brilliance to break the deadlock.

Spain smashed through Russia. Credit the Russians for trying to play attractive football. They played good, attacking football. Unfortunately, the Spanish counter attack was too strong today. Spain did look a little bit sloppy at the back. Russia's fate will be in there hands with the way they play Greece and especially Sweden (big game).

Watch Vid of Zlata!
