Anders Svensson has retired from international football, aged 37.

He represented Sweden on 148 occasions, beating the record set by Ravelli, who picked up 143 caps.

Svensson played at two World Cups and two European Championships, but Ronaldo ended his hopes of going to the 2014 World Cup.
 
Simunic banned for 10 matches by FIFA for nazi saluting/chanting, will miss World Cup.

Probably good for Croatia. I'm not sure why he still gets picked.

He is very old.

I'm sure he will appeal and play the "I had no idea" card, now over to our Croatian correspondent to tell us if it is right or not........

Having lived in Croatia and Serbia for the last 10 years I've found that the ex-pats from these countries go way over the top with their nationalism (and I believe Josip Simunic has lived all his life in Australia?) The locals have to live here. Probably " I had no idea" is about right.
