Late to the Celta-Madrid game because of the forum downtime.
That first goal by Swedberg (6:27)— wow wow WOW! That was sublime, one of the best finishes I've ever seen. Few players would think to attempt it, let alone execute it with such finesse. The kind of spontaneous ingenuity in the box we've seen from ingenious strikers like Ibra and Suarez. Has to be perfect with timing, first touch contact, and direction. And from a hard ball in the air, with a feint strike by his teammate in front of him. And with an element of feint/deception as well. Only 21. Going to have to keep an eye on this lad.
Whole move was class by Celta Vigo, starting with that smart penetrating reverse pass by Mingueza. Though, tbh, a fast throughball to (the well on-side and free) Borja Iglesias [#7] was probably the percentage play.
Swedberg's walk-in second goal was also excellent, so cool.
And Madrid falling apart with their temper tantrum card spree at the end. 😂 Mwah! Chef's kiss!
