Football: ‘I was feeling alive again’ – Zlatan

I started to feel alive again" said Zlatan Ibrahimovic on Monday as he spoke about his return to European and International football as he hopes to play for Sweden in their World Cup qualifier against Georgia on Thursday. Ibrahimovic came out of international retirement to play for Sweden for the first time since the 2016 European Championship. Ibrahimovic scored a national-record 62 goals in 112 games from 2001-16 and would become the oldest player in the history of Sweden's national team if he plays next week. Without the country's most high-profile player, Sweden reached the quarterfinals of the 2018 World Cup in Russia — its best performance in the competition since 1994.
