Ibra may carry most of the expectations but the midfield presence and experience of Kallstrom is usually something Sweden can rely on and they expected him to perform to a decent level, by his team’s standards at least, but the former Arsenal loanee was missing for majority of the 3 group games that saw them fail to beat an average Ireland and lose to a Belgium side that doesn’t even know their best line up yet.

His tackling was abysmal, winning the ball only once of his 9 attempts at tackling and giving away fouls constantly as well as missing out on more headers than he won. Kallstrom, much like Ibra, is starting to show his age on the big stage.
