Freddie header makes Paraguay head for home


An 88th minute rare but brilliant header from Ljungberg sent the 50,000 Swedish fans present in Olympiastadion into rapturous celebrations and Paraguay back to home. The Swedes won the match 1-0 courtesy of Freddie's late goal and are now favourites to end second in the Group B table behind England. Freddie's goal also meant that now Paraguay will have to bear the disppointment of an early exit.

The win was very crucial for the swedes to harbour any hopes of qualification for the knock-out rounds after having been held to a goalless draw to Trinidad and Tobago in their World Cup opener. The point I want to make here is that a Gunner, an arsenal player scored THAT important goal and that makes me feel say Hhhhhuuuuurrrrrrrrrraaaahhhhhhh! And he was the Man of the Match too! Huuurrrrraaahhh!!

After seeing Rosicky drilling two past USA, Fabregas helping Torres for Spain and now Freddie scoring the all important one for Sweden its Henrys' turn now to get on the score sheet. And if only he could hammer 3 past the South Koreans on Sunday then it would start to look a perfect Arsenal up there at the World Cup.

Won't it?
