Yep, dont bother watching a fantastic tournament with the worlds best on the world stage as Zlatan Ibrahimovic says World Cup not worth watching Sweden captain Zlatan Ibrahimovic says the World Cup is not worth watching without him after their play-off loss. The Paris St-Germain striker scored twice against Portugal on Tuesday but Cristiano Ronaldo's hat-trick took his side through 4-2 on aggregate. Ibrahimovic, 32, said: "It was probably the last attempt to reach the World Cup with the national team for me. "A World Cup without me is nothing to watch so it is not worthwhile to wait for the World Cup." At the age of 32, Sweden skipper Zlatan Ibrahimovic may not have another opportunity to play in a World Cup finals. And the tournament would represent a nadir in the Paris St-Germain striker's career. He has never scored at a finals having made two substitute appearances in 2002 and three starts in 2006. They ended up scoring all six goals between them as Portugal won 4-2 on aggregate. Former Inter Milan forward Ibrahimovic, who has played in two World Cups, scored eight times in qualifying, including the play-offs, and assisted another six goals - having a hand in 14 out of Sweden's 21 goals. He told Uefa's website: "Why did we lose? To be honest, they were better than us. We should be proud. We couldn't have done better than we did. "Of course, we could look back at our mistakes, but these things happen. They punished our mistakes. After making it 2-1 it felt like we were on a roll, our hopes grew, but unfortunately they made it 2-2 soon afterwards." Real Madrid forward Ronaldo, who has scored 34 goals in 24 games this season for club and country, said: "I just did my job, as I have been doing lately. I always try to give my best - that is always my goal." He is now Portugal's joint-top scorer, along with retired former Paris St-Germain striker Pauleta on 47. "It was not a priority for me to break Pauleta's record," the 28-year-old said. "I knew Portugal needed me and I stuck to the task at hand. Now we have some time to rest and to do our best for our clubs before starting to think about the World Cup finals." ------------ What an absolute bellend this bloke is, even Ronaldo isnt as arrogant and he's a far better player
ffs sour grapes if ever there was one. he will be missed as he is a quality player, but news flash Zlatan, will be better players on show than you.
Zlatan is a ****ing legend. You're all just jealous of God!! http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/zlatan-ibrahimovic-quotes-best-outspoken-2331210
No he really thinks that I dont know if he does really but still a stupid thing to say given they had just not qualifyed and he wont get another world cup to play in It was released via his app, who the **** has a Zlatan Ibrahimovic app
But he also said after the loss to Portugal that Portugal were far better than Sweden. Also applauded one of Ronaldo's goals. Seen compilations on youtube of him pissing around and he seems to just have a dry sense of humour.
