It's time for Zlatan Ibrahimovic to take the Euro 2016 stage, as Sweden prepare to take on the Republic of Ireland. One of the biggest stars around will be eager to make as large an impact as he can, especially after Sweden missed out on the World Cup two years ago. This might be Zlatan's last opportunity to truly shine on the international stage, so he's going to go all out from the start to take full advantage of it.

Of course, Ireland won’t be eager to let him have his way. They got through qualifying and their playoff by playing tough and smart, a style that matches up well with Sweden’s. This is going to be a tough-nosed match that will feature plenty of skill and entertainment, and even without Zlatan it would be a match worth watching -- with Zlatan, though, you won’t want to miss it.
