P. Jakelis: Swedes demonstrate everything that is worst in football

On the last day of the round of 16, the least predictable pair in this football championship will start - Switzerland vs Sweden. As stated in the press release, it will be interesting to watch this match, but it is better to close your eyes when Sweden's national team controls the ball, advise football commentator Paulius Jakelis and comedian, show host, football fan Paulius Ambrazevičius on the show "Ambrazevičius & Jakelis: insights of armchair experts". According to P. Jakelis, Sweden does not charm the audience with their style of play, which is characterized by defense, high balls and set pieces - everything that can be the worst in football. He says that despite the unattractive game, Sweden should be respected, as even with enviable resources, they manage to achieve the maximum result. "Sweden are the only team in their group that lost to Germany, but the only team from that group to advance to the quarterfinals, which means that this team has the ability," notes P. Ambrazevičius. According to P. Jakelis, Sweden can make it to the quarterfinals, but winning against Switzerland's national team will be difficult, as the Swiss have stronger leaders in attack, but do not have a good striker. Football experts predict that playing against Sweden's national team, the Swiss will choose Haris Seferović as their striker, who can score with his head from the edges, which is a common situation when playing against the Swedes. The match between England and Colombia is awaited in Lithuania According to P. Jakelis, the last round of 16 match, where England will face Colombia, is one of the most awaited matches in Lithuania, as we have quite a few fans of England. He says that predicting an England win is difficult, as they often have bad luck - winning one match, unexpectedly losing the next: "It is difficult to evaluate the last English performance against the Belgians, as they did not have the best lineup. Their fans were also upset because the team did not play their best game, but simply went through the motions." Perhaps the England national team was expecting a draw, but they are not very disappointed even after losing. "After all, the symbol of the English team is three lions, so those third matches don't mean anything to them," jokes P. Ambrazevičius. In these matches, the football commentator supports the English, but does not promise them victory. According to him, Colombia is particularly good at counterattacks, especially when James Rodriguez, who performs excellent passes, is on the field.
