Waiting game for Allback
Thursday 25 May 2006
Read Bill Borrows every day during the World Cup on 4thegame - you know it makes sense!
Sweden striker Marcus Allback is desperate to be given a chance to shine in his country's final World Cup warm-up games and avoid a summer sitting on the subs bench.
The 32-year-old has enjoyed a successful season with FC Copenhagen, but expects to be used as back-up to Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Henrik Larsson for his country.
Allback said: "I feel in good form and if I can maintain it for these weeks, then that would be good. I will take the chance whenever I get it.
"My chances of playing will not be big unless I get to play in the friendly matches. I cannot do much more than that."
