Sweden 0 vs Italy 0

Sweden qualifies on 1 : 0 aggregate

Sweden are going to the World Cup finals in Russia at the expense of four-time champions Italy after a stalemate at the San Siro.

It was an Italian onslaught in the second half with chances coming thick and fast.


But the visitors held on, leaving Jakob Johansson's lone strike in the first leg enough to send the Swedes through to next year's tournament.

This is the first time since 1958, and the second time in their history, that Italy has failed to qualify for football's blue riband event.

since 1958. dem no sabi play ball again

Football no be Maths. Even the likes of Immobile and co no fit score.

As a United fan, i feel for darmian. See him sad. Truth is Italy have no more attackers. All they got is defence. No midfield or forward.

Ni pirlo, inzaghi, balotelli, nobody that's a top notch striker or forward to save them. Their FA should do something asap and try to groom more home bred or indegene forwards instead of signing internationals up and down for their big clubs like juventus and co.

history will always repeat itself, Germany is d world champion the last time Italy miss out of the world cup

italian football is going down ... i saw it coming when they dont score more than a goal . ..football has gone beyond scoring one and parking the bus ... s

Congratulations to Sweden

It's still Ok.

Buffon has played his last match for his country. He's one of the best GK the football world has ever produced. A true mountain of a man, a legenddd!!!!

I thought I was the only one that saw that, let me launch the meme immediately .





Lalasticlala, when he waits all day on Nairaland , and there is no sign of a snake thread coming forth

At least Buffon will give way for younger players. He led Italians to soccer recession

Italy, back to d drawing board. Nigeria did little of dat and here (Russia) we are today. as a Football fan, I hate when Legends bow out dis way. we will miss u capitan gigi, Danielle De rossi, Geoggio Chiellini and Barzagli..

Such is life

Lala don resume so early?

They need rest, first time in 60 yrs

Th

Italy why naw, my ticket don cut

This means its Nigeria's time to win it.

Let's say my mom watched this match, she'll be like, "Eiyaa negodu ka o na ebe akwa, eiyaaa nwanne moo, referee meenu something na, odirokwa mma" right now.
Very emotional woman ❤

No Italy in the World Cup.
