Second half was okay - Sweden decided it would be nice to venture forward at last and created several good chances. Isak had a good game again, but needs to learn not to be so greedy - I'm sure his more experienced team-mates will have a word.

I'm in a minority of one (bar Swedes) on the planet, it seems, as I didn't find it unwatchable at all. First quarter was cagey, but once Slovakia realized they could attack and not just counter, they played some decent football. No finisher though. Sweden were much more positive in the second half, and though it wasn't exactly end to end thrills, there should have been goals before the pen.
Dubravka should have dived forward and taken a boot on the noggin, like we were told to do in the mud back in the dark ages.

Sweden are the definition of a side that's been making up the numbers in these tournaments for 20 years. In their last 5 Euros they got out of the group once, in 2004, and only won 3 games (never more than one per tournament). OTOH they failed to qualify for the finals at all in 1964-88 and 1996, having not entered in 1960.
