Tomas Brolin, an absolute legend.
He was a Beast
I was 25 yrs old in 1994. Will always remember the hot summer of '94 here in Sweden and all the nights in front of the TV. Wonderful memories...
And now we have another even hotter summer with the biggest WC success since 94'. History always repeats itself.
yes same here remember summernights at my parats summerhouse were me and my older brothers watched this on a black/white 14" tv...good times!
I was pretty young at 10 and my brothers at 24 and 21.
I was the same age just arrived in the USA that summer in June...I bought that yellow and blue Adidas replica Sweden kit in Manhattan at a football store on 34th and 6th if I can remember...
Hi my name is victor and I came to say that no one cares
@@jossslazar372 Josss I care man I care
Sweden was the most enjoyable team in 94. And Brolin was my favorite player of that cup.
Brolin was my hero too.
@@afandiimuttaqii2894 so am I. Brolin was terrific
Not so enjoyable at the next World Cup, or the next Euros for that matter :).
I am from Brazil and I remenber we feared Sweden in that cup.
Guidc I think the Swedish manager claims that Jose Joaquin Torres Cadena (Colombia) was biased towards Brazil and sent off the Swedish player because he was a fellow South Amercian, do you agree with this?
Brazil was outstanding in '94. Well earned gold. Regards from Sweden
@Matt Beardsworth I've never heard or seen Tommy Svensson, the swedish manager then, say anything like that about the referee. He did think the red card for Thern was too harsh (together with every other swede in the world), but he hasn't claimed he was biased.
I actually believe (if I remember correctly) that the Swedish FA lodged an official protest with FIFA after the game regarding that a South American ref was picked. The red card was insane btw.
guidc, I remember, Sweden was a very tough team to play against. Tall and very well structured defensively. Keneth Anderson, Larson and others were a nightmare to deal with.
Fortunately, we had Romario which for me was the best player I have ever seen play inside the "area". That " little"man carried the ofensive load for Brazil in many games and with Taffarel was the main REASON why I saw Brazil winning that world cup in 1994. Great memories.
I'm Romanian and I was 10 years old at the time of that World Cup. I still remember, to this day, the tension in the air from those penalty shots..also the emotions of the outcome. To this day, that was the furthest our national football team got in a World Cup
As a norwegian I was jealous of our neighbors success. I thought we had a decent team ourself, but the swedes were world class in this world cup.
Sweden v Romania was an epic game in USA'94. USA'94 was fun
I think Sweden was great in this USA 94 World Cup. As they said, they were the top scoring in the tournament. Kennet Andersson made 5 goals, as Romario who was the king of this World Cup. But Salenko and Stoichkov were the top scorers with 6 goals each. And they brilliantly finished it with the 3rd place. I think this was their best result since 1958 Sweden World Cup, isn´t? Long live to the Vikings!
Salenko's goal scoring title is a bit phony since he scored 5 of the goals against a relatively mediocre opponent (Cameroon) in a game that meant absolutely nothing (both teams were already out). Kennet Andersson was twice the player Salenko was in the 1994 World Cup.
@@okyouknowwhatever I agree Kenneth Andersson was also way better than Stoichkov in 94. When it counted he delivered for Sweden, no matter who they played against.
@@UScarsarethebest you meant Salenko..lol...he became a nobody after the World Cup
Sweden will never be a force again
@@UScarsarethebest And Stoichkov did not deliver when it counted? He scored against Argentina and Germany (the last two World Champions at the time and the finalists at the prior World Cup in Italy); who did K. Andersson score against? Russia, Saudi Arabia and Romania?
Brolin, what a player he was !
No kidding. The U.S. supported anything that was against Russia.
Oh yes, back when Sweden had a huge military.
Best Swedish team ever, might as well have won the entire tournament
Dahlin was a highly underrated striker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
M.Alexander Zagorski What a player
He was rather highly rated at the time; I think he was a player marked out by the pundits as one to watch, and of course we all knew of him by the end of the tournament. A shame his career faltered afterwards, I never knew he had been due to star in Serie A.
Blackburn ruined him
He looked like OJ
Man gjorde inte bara mål, det var riktigt snygga mål också! Min favorit är Brolins frisparksvariant!
Martin Dahlin's skalle mot Ryssland är ett underbart mål det också. Den kraften är otrolig! :)
Båda Dahlins nickar mot Ryssland är så skickligt utförda. Underbar teknik, känsla och placering!
Kommer aldrig att glömma vrålet från alla som tittade hemma med fönstren öppna, hela gatan jublade...
fyfan så mäktigt!
@@zlopy Det var vidunderligt, at se hvor gode i Svenskere var. Selvom det ikke er mit land, gjorde det mig stolt.
The uniforms they had back then were dope af 👌🏽 and they played tremendously
Was 9 at the time. I'll never forget this tournament, this was huge in Sweden
That roast on Saudi Arabia saying the heat was more worrying
I don't think it was meant to be an insult to the Saudi team so much as to emphasise how big an issue the heat was. 40 degrees centigrade is not something most northern Europeans ever experience, let alone contemplate exerting themselves in. There was a lot of concern over the heat expressed by many sides during that world cup. I like to see football played in bright sunshine though, and USA 94 remains my favourite world cup (perhaps largely because I was turning 13 and it was the first world cup I really paid attention to).
Dan UA-cam I was greatly disappointed when Saudi team lost and I still remember that match and I was 14 years old 😀
Saudi Arabia have temperatures like that for much of the year and would be used to it.
pa k think he means to the other teams
@@danyoutube7491 Yeah, the highest temperature ever meassured in Sweden is only 38° so 40°+ is obviously something the players would be VERY unused to unlike the Saudi players
I've been watching world cups since 1986 and I must say that of the other than usual semi-finalists in World Cups since then, I'd have to say this team has been the most impressive. Why? Mainly because of what this guys said about the heat in Dallas. Sweden is a Nordic country and these guys were not used to our American summers yet they had a fantastic world cup scoring all them goals and finishing in 3rd place. They are in the quarter finals now and are scheduled to play England. Lycka till Sverige!
nah. the heat in mexico is far worse and some teams from cold climates did pretty well for themselves
Ravelli, anderson, Larson, legends ever. Greatness.
Brolin was the best of all.
@@afandiimuttaqii2894 And Sweden never again had an midfield-motor as Schwarz.
A great summer for most Swedes.
RIP Klas Ingesson (1968-2014)
Fair play to Sweden. They deserved their 3rd place. For me the most frustrating game in the whole tournament was the match for the 3rd place and I was mad on our players. But being at age of 10 and following a world cup championship for a first (and last) time, I couldn't realize the great achievement of our team. A country that had never won a single game in a world cup so far, Bulgaria suddenly reached a semi-final by eliminating the world champion Germany. Sadly the loss from Italy with the decisive intervention of the referee, obviously broke the spirit of our team and the Swedes had no problem to defeat us.
The '94 team of Bulgaria was sensational.
During my lifetime so far is, when it comes to World Cup are: 1982, 1978 and 1994. When it was football really. A struggle, fight and a focus. Today, it is like Hollywood. The so called "stars" have boats bigger than their ego can swallow. Yes, today they can play and so on. In the old days they played for a living. That is a big difference.
94 was great for the football :)
Applåder till Ravelli & till det hela svenska landslaget VM94 🇸🇪
i miss that kind of football, today its like watching bowling, there is one ball and 22 pegs.
Martin Dahlin the Gladbach legend!
They were amazing!!!! Great team!!!
Nice to back see my favourite players when I was younger
1994 was one of my favourite World Cups!Sweden had such a great team!a pity England was not qualified nor France!
Well, France deserved to qualify more than Sweden did.
@@mbojilov1 Well, France deserved to qualify more than Bulgaria did.
The swedish attack at the time was great! Swedens attack today is horrible with Berg and Toivonen. Toivonen plays like he's got 2 peglegs, and one of them being broken. Berg is a complete has-been (and not a very good has-been at that). Back in '94 we had Martin Dahlin, Kenneth Andersson and Henrik Larsson - 3 very accomplished strikers! The U.S world cup will forever be remembered as the one time we had a really good squad all-round and the memories of that tournament will forever be cherished :).
Jagge Jagger is the offense that horrible? ;)
Krille Kralle I think their goal-tally for this World Cup alone says it all. 1 goal between them and that goal was scored in a game that we lost ;).
Toivonen som kränkte Neuer. Nej, jag håller med om att offensiven/målskyttet är en svaghet. Tur att vi har en bra straffskytt i alla fall
Also Tomas Brolin !!! making it four strikers
Look we are in quarters now. Everybody says we are lucky have a shit attack.But we have scored more goals then argentina and england this wc.Toivonen and Berg are better then Zlatan and Elmander
No shame in losing to Brazil. Actually they were lucky not to lose that game 4-0
Brolin...Brolin... Brolin...
You are my all time hero. Where are you my brother please?
SELEÇÃO DA SUÉCIA DE 94 ERA MUITO BOA. DEU MUITO TRABALHO AO BRASIL. DOIS JOGOS MUITO DIFÍCEIS. ACHÁVAMOS QUE NÃO IRÍAMOS PASSAR PARA A FINAL CONTRA A SUÉCIA.MAS GRAÇAS A DEUS DEU TUDO CERTO.GOL DE CABEÇA DO ROMÁRIO E UMA VAGA PARA FINAL.
I loved this team. Dahlin and Anderson were awesome.
💯 brocent, my idol as a child ...
Beautiful memories in the World Cup in 94
Although Sweden made it to final on home turf in 1958 they have never reached semi finals ever since. The Swedish team in history. They will surely be missed
+pooya hemmati They reached semi finals in 1938 ...
And 1950
+pooya hemmati Sweden made it to more semifinals compared to my English team. They got 1 silver medal and three bronze medals. England got a gold medal of course but they got more medals in both the World cup and the Olympic games. England have beaten the Swedes in ice-hockey plenty of times way back by cheating with Canadian players and England won 2 World cup gold medals in Hockey.
pooya hemmati Sweden made it to the semi-final in 1938 1950 and 1994 u are dumb
+Ville Sundborg Dumb cause I cant keep track of a foreign nation I do know very little about? I thought they made it to the semis in 1974 as well? Well nice to know anyway. You forgot 1958 are you "dumb" as well?
I still remember that i was 10 year olds at that event, i watched it with my uncle and he used to sleep when the match stated, it was about 3AM in my country at that time
This World Cup got me into soccer.
*Football
Svea Karolinen let it go...
FIFA World Cup, FIFA stands for Fédération Internationale de Football Association
For whoever doesn't know why Americans say soccer, they don't want to confuse it with *American football*
It's because their ball is 1 foot long.
Nos dois últimos títulos mundiais do Brasil, os semifinalistas estavam com ele na fase de grupos, e ambos acabaram em terceiro na Copa do Mundo após eliminações nas semifinais contra o Brasil. Suécia em 1994 e Turquia em 2002.
henrik larsson still in corn row hair.. like jamaican
Wasn't he half Caribean?
Just have all the World Cups in USA going forward, avoid controversy , corruption etc. more than enough adequate stadiums, with all the nfl , college football stadiums
Wouldnt be as passionate fans there though. I suggest alternating between the US and UK/Germany/Nordic countries
Essa foi a melhor equipe sueca que vi jogar!
It's amazing how good Romario was in the air
Henrik Larsen's first big game there :0)
Larsson*
Larsen is the Danish name
Loved Sweden at this time. As an Arsenal fan I wanted Brolin, Anderrson, Dahlin and Larson. Also Sweden were robbed against Brazil.
Gooner too I was 16 and supported sweden as we were getting Schwarz. Wanted those 4 as well!
without the referee's biased intervention, sweden would have progressed. same with belgium in 2002.
Brazil was very superior than Sweden and deserved the win. Simple as that.
94 was an interesting year. The Swedes weren't THAT big of a surprise. They were ranked third in the world heading in. The biggest disappointment? Maybe Norway. Thay had all the tools that year... Columbia being the other major flop.
I agree with every single statement in this post.
maradona got busted for P:E:D:s to, something silly like cough syrup
Didn't Norway beat Brazil 1-0 in 94 ? And Brazil went on to win the 94 World Cup. Idk, i'm just asking. I know nothing about Norwegian soccer. I only know Norway has a great Women's football team.
purplinko Ya but i'm watching tons of these FIFA clips here on UA-cam. I figured i'd just ask. But thanks for replying.
purplinko I went and googled. My mistake. It was in 98. But apparently they were ranked as high as 2nd in the World leading up to the 94 WC.
Why couldn't Brazil have played Italy in the semis?

"När vi gräver guld i USA!" ♫
Now we are in the Round Of 16! Incredible to be honest.
Sweden had an unbelieveable squad back then! With a little bit of luck they could have won the tournanent.
4:55 parecido al gol de Zanetti en el 98 a Inglaterra.
No sería que el gol de Zanetti se parece a éste
Romárioooo !!!!!
FIFA should give subtitle in multi languange for video like this !!
Man I miss the old football
0:18 what a dirty tackle that would have been.
BEST PLAYER World cup 1994
It helps to be free-scoring when you get an easy draw and the likes of Cameroon, Russia and Saudi Arabia to play against.
Sweden will make it to the semifinals in this year's world cup. Mark my words.
I believe you... I never doubt the heart and technique from the Sweden teams. Cheers from a brazilian.
👀
Don't jinx it >:(
Quarter-Final against England
They lost 2-0
What's with the clip of Cameroon v Columbia (as in 'not Sweden')?
WC 90'
Three underdogs with striking qualities packed with wonders: Sweden, Romania, Bulgaria. At the end, it was Sweden making triumph over the other two. Looking forward to another surprise in Russia.
Set piece vs romania awesome
Thomas Brolin Martin dahlin I'm in class 8 n just 13 year old that time great memories
Reminds me of Turkey in WC2002. Played Brazil twice and got robbed in the semis against them.
Sweden//Jugoslavia are the greatest at football.
3:50 That goal by Bebeto is almost identical to the goal Ronaldo scored in the 2002 semi final against Turkey. Look it up
That was Romario scoring.
Heja Sverige!
Straight guys with earrings is so 90s.
WORLD CUP 1994 is the 😍😘👍 Sweden Brazil Italy
Sweden had a strong team in 1994
Sweden and bulgaria was â big suprise
CANER SARIKOÇ They qualified from the same group in Europe and Bulgaria kicked out France in the last second.
Hopefully this Will happen again! Now we meet England. Kom igen Sverige! 🇸🇪
;(
And england beat you. But to be fair England were abysmal against croatia.
J'espère voir un jour la Suède gagner une grande compétition l'euro voir même la coupe du monde 🇨🇵 🤝🏻 🇸🇪 de la part d'un Français
ปีทองโรเจอร์ มิลลาแคเมอรูน
Y from Brazil Romário
Larson with hair
I’m from sweden
This is the world cup that is the closest to my heart. I remember that scorching summer so vividly, being out playing football every day between games and tuning in to every Sweden match and seeing the magic of that team's run through the cup. Brazil was a beast, Italy too were very feared, but you had exciting "wildcard" teams beyond those as well; Romania, Bulgaria, Nigeria, Cameroon..the list goes on and I think it's safe to say that the games we saw that summer were exciting and fun to watch even when the teams playing wasn't "your team". No tournament in football since then has engaged me in the same way, I'm not even sure it can. To all who tuned in from all over the world that summer I can only hope you enjoyed yourself just as much as I did from my little corner of Sweden.
WC 94 the best.
Larsson! 💚
NÄR VI GRÄVER GUULD I UUUSAAAAA
SWEDEN YES
Darlin looked like OJ
With Jan Eriksson and Pär Zetterberg not injured they would have been even better!
Tommy Svensson played Zetterberg all the time, you are thinking of Tommy Söderberg. Zetterberg won Guldbollen during Svennsons time as coach.
@@Juhaliza Jan Eriksson made 7 matches in qualifying (more than both Andersson and Björklund) and Zetterberg 6 matches in qualifying. I doubt that they wouldnt play. At least some matches. And against Brazil in the semifinal they would probably have been in the starting lineup due to injurys and tired players. Zetterberg where not popular in Söderberg/Lagerbäcks team, but in Tommy Svenssons team he was an obvious choise. Zetterberg didnt fit Lagerbäcks defensive strategy (he was probebly to lazy) but he was a brilliant free kick specialist (like a swedish Hagi but maybe not up to his standard). Jan Erikssons career came to a sudden stop due to injurys just like Brolin.
Omg was Pele only 17 when he won the world cup !!
JAAA! :D
Romário. Brazil
เคยเขียน จม. ไปหา kenneth anderson ด้วย ❤
That’s Colombia in the 1990 highlights
When players could wear jewelry to the pitch
Basically they were the Croatia of the 1994 World Cup.
Romário ! 🇧🇷👍🏽
Sadly Sweden is a totally different team now...
🤨what a pity that these "confusing the world" of Swedes eliminated Romania on penalties. what a HAGI-Brazil dream semifinal we would have had.
The worse memory in the history of romanians. 10 men Sweden equalised in 115 min because of the goalkeeper error. Congrats to Sweden.
I can imagine.
underdogs never really win the world cup that just shows how competitive it is
nanaglo4545 its been stagnant,, u could just list a scoop of teams who have been consistently flushing up the opposotion and being in the semis,, The germans the dutch etc... It comes down to a 3 or 4 horse race in the world cup,, u dont win a world cup with a team like iceland nd thats where tradition and roots come into play,, the home grown talents,, the chemistry of keepin them in the home leagues,,,that being the reason why teams like Sweden, Chile nd other nations struggle in the world cup while we see teams like germany storming anything on their way
FIFA would never allow an underdog win the world cup,not even making it to the final in fact..it's a lot of marketing going on there..that is the real disappointment,knowing that the same countries will run for the trophy every time.
Je ziet wel wat een rode kaart voor gevolgen heeft..
