Sweden
If you have read this far, you knew that Sweden was the only option left for the last berth. Sometimes, we get a vibe of a player being greater than a team, even though footballing ethos strictly suggest otherwise.
In the case of Sweden, this feeling amplifies beyond imagination, thanks to the presence of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. With footballing ability as grand as his ego, he is Sweden’s greatest ever player and he makes sure that people acknowledge him as one.
Despite being 34 years old, he is still one of the best and most lethal strikers in the world—scoring 50 goals in all competition for PSG in the 2015-16 season, his personal best. It seems as though Zlatan ages like wine as he keeps getting better with time.
He is yet to replicate his brutal best with the country, but given the form he is in, this might just be the tournament.
