Zlatan Unplugged Unplugged Questions Match nul contre Reims, 2-2, après deux buts de Zlatan. You put the first goal of the season in the net after just 7 minutes on a pass from Javier Pastore. How important is a start like this to you and the team? Zlatan: It is very important, both to the team and I. Your first goal was followed by 15 minutes of missed chances, including a penalty kick and a shot that hit the post. Is it frustrating for you to miss that many opportunities, or does it instill confidence as you create chance upon chance? Zlatan: I’m still fuming! We need to put those chances in the net, end of story. Reims stood up quite well in the first half and they had a 2-1 lead at halftime although you dominated the ball possession with 70 %. What did you say to each other during the halftime break? Zlatan: We talked about keeping on going, but that we also had to look out for counterattacks. You scored a second goal with a chip that Reims’ goalkeeper got his hands on, but it went in anyway. Was it intended as a goal attempt when you sent the ball into the target area, or was it a pass for someone else to finish on? Zlatan: Honestly, it was meant as a pass. But that doesn’t matter as went in anyway. The defenders gave you quite a hard time and you had to put up with many blows throughout the match. How do you feel physically after tonight’s season premiere? Zlatan: It feels good. I’m still not 100 % but I will get there. Published: 2014-08-08
