Sweden & Belarus Wrap Up The Tourny Highlight Reel In One Game

Posted: 16 Jun 2009 04:00 PM PDT

Whilst everyone is paying attention to the glorified friendlies/soft opening in South Africa, way up near the opposite end of the globe the U-21 UEFA championships kicked off yesterday. England beat Finland predictably while giants Spain and Germany butted heads to a scoreless draw, but it wasn’t til today when the tournament truly kicked off as hosts Sweden put on a show in front of the home crowd. 5-1 was the final score, including a beautifully technical hat trick from Marcus Berg, and each goal worthy of its own highlight reel. Even Belarus stuck in a couple candidates for goal of the tournament - though the own-goal flicked header from 18 yards probably won’t go down well - proving once again…it’s all about the children.
