Swedish coach Tommy Soderberg decided last week it was time to address his team's scoring difficulties, which have led to a bit of a goal drought in recent times. So, ahead of Wednesday's indoor friendly against the Faroe Islands, he opted for a daring experimental 4-2-3-1 formation and selected several of the country's brightest young attacking players.
You know the way indoor games usually end up 17-12? Wednesday's result? 0-0. Sweden's best scoring chance? A missed penalty. Tommy? Return to that there drawing board.
