Champions League: Ibrahimovic joins great unfulfilled? – Polish Radio

Manchester City knocked out Paris Saint Germain Champions League. After a draw 2: 2 at the Parc des Princes in Paris, the English at home they won 1: 0 after a goal by Kevin de Bruyne. He finished the dream of Parisians on further toward the trophy. I might be out of a dream Zlatan Ibrahimovic that rises up the trophy for the best team in Europe.

 

Ibrahimović has an established reputation in the world of football, in the same breath mentioned him among the best strikers in the world can boast of great achievements and unique style.


 

4 different clubs won 13 titles in total in his cabinet can put 28 different trophies. Malicious after Tuesday’s match may say that it is more than is in your account Manchester City in its history – and you can not deny it. Swede can be arrogant, many consider him as a megalomaniac who uses a maximum of your image. It is controversial, but fans of most teams, which performed, held him in adoration. He confirmed his class many times over the years, gaining phenomenal goals, often in situations where other gunmen would not normally even on the impact test.


 
 
 

When it comes to the Champions League, something always lacked this to enjoy the final triumph. When I walked away from Milan, next season the club won the game. Barcelona came when the team defending the trophy. Stood in her way is the “Nerazzurri”, who threw in the semifinals, “Pride of Catalonia” from the competition. It was also the moment in which the sniper was closest to the dream of success.


 

Something seemed only a matter of time, did not happen, however, until now.


 

Lost to Manchester City was the fifth consecutive season in which the team “Ibracadabry” ended its participation at the quarter-finals. In the knockout stages of the Champions League Swede can not boast of great effectiveness. It is much easier to admit that in the big games wailed. In 44 meetings after leaving the group scored only 10 goals. For comparison, Cristiano Ronaldo scored in 36 of their 35 matches.


 
 
 

On the Seine asking these questions about the future of Ibrahimovic, who ends contract with PSG, and who want to move to the other side of the Channel – English direction can not be ruled out, for many Premier League seems to be perfectly tailored for this player. The only question is how the club will want to bring him back. Last loudest talking about Manchester United, however, the “Red Devils” at this point are outside the top four, which gives the right to play in the Champions League. Ibrahimović playing in the Europa League? This scenario sounds a bit abstract.


 

You can not say that Ibrahimovic was the only player with a reputation which failed to win the Champions League. Over the years without a trophy other players such as Gianluigi Buffon, Ronaldo, Roberto Baggio, Patrick Vieira, Lothar Mattheus and the great Diego Maradona. This achievement is often also managed to players, which is difficult to say that they were football virtuosos. Do fans will remember such names as Djimi Traore (Liverpool), Jovan Kirovski (Borussia Dortmund) and Jesper Blomqvist or Scott Carson (Liverpool)?

It is certain that the Swede, even if you end his career without a medal for the winner of the Champions League, will be remembered for decades.
