Date: 05/04/01 The Swedish presidency website scored with a neat April Fool inspired by photographs of German Chancellor Gerhard Schröder demonstrating his soccer skills at the Stockholm summit. The Swedes said they were proposing the ultimate in Union harmonisation: a European super side to take on the Brazilians. And it looks pretty useful, too: Goalkeeper: Olivier Kahn (Bayern München/Germany). Defenders: Lilian Thuram (Parma/France); Alessandro Nesta (Lazio/Italy); Sol Campbell (Spurs/England); Jaap Staam (Manchester Utd/The Netherlands). Midfield: David Beckham (Manchester Utd/ England); Luis Figo (Real Madrid/Portugal); Zinedine Zidane (Juventus/France); Ryan Giggs (Manchester Utd/Wales). Forwards: Raúl Ganzález Blanco Real Madrid/Spain), Henrik Larsson, Celtic/Sweden). The Swedes are asking for other dream team suggestions to be posted at: askeu2001@foreign.ministry.se |
