Freddy Ljunberg has not just returned to top form with Arsenal, but also with Sweden. To mark his 50th cap he scored a typical oppotunistic goal for Sweden against France.

As the ball rebounded loose into the penalty area Freddy came in at high speed to put in the net from a few yards out.

The Final score was 1-1 and Henry played a key role in making France's goal, headed in by Trezeguet.

Meanwhile Jens Lehmann got preference over Oliver Khan for Germany against Argentina. The score was 2-2, with Crespo getting a brace. The first a penalty, the second a lob, from at least 20 yards out, with Jens isolated in no mans land due to poor defending from a quickly take free kick.
