Mitoma just scored a nice header for Japan. Live coverage here if anyone is really bored!

7 (SEVEN) - 0 in the end. Mitoma subbed off after 63 mins. Losing 7-0 to Japan is unlikely to go down well in Beijing...

It's quite amusing to see Australia lose 0-1 at home to Bahrain, with wee Maty in goal. (personally, it's sporting schadenfreude for the Aussies in general than Ryan in particular :lolol:)

Yeah, looking at it, at least those four up front got some pace. Will be interesting to see if Ayari can find them! I think it's good that he's got this opportunity tonight.

Edit: The defense is another matter ... that used to be our strenght...

That defense though...
It's just the generation you have isn't it?

Most Sweden sides for the last 30 years have normally had one very good attacker, a half decent winger, absolutely nothing else to get your pulse going, but could generally be relied on for a clean sheet.

This one? Looks a little top heavy. Do you have any defenders to come in? I can't think of any

Yeah we have a bunch of ok defenders - probably more than at any time before - but no one to really lead it, no one who stands out. So its just flat and bad and new players every time.

There is a young lad in Malmö called Nils Zätterström, he will soon be a target for big clubs and could perhaps rise above this fairly mediocre lot.

Goalless in Baku too. Azerbaijan missed a penalty 45 +5. Ayari has had a couple of Gross-ish balls into the box. Dull first half.
