Another referee could have shown as many cards for completely different fouls. De Bleeckere's were mainly for minor ones. Goalie Isaksson got booked for kicking away the ball but only after Pavlyochenko asked for it a couple of times. That way De Bleeckere invited irritations. Let's be brief: De Bleeckere wasn't very good and also not very bad, average and that is not De Bleeckere

match

The Russians looked relaxed, taking it easy and then suddenly ran and ran, being everywhere. The Swedes stood still for most of the time, only when they were 2 - 0 behind they seemed to realize they had to do something. Do something with a team full of elderly players completely relying on one man's (Ibrahimovic) skills.
