You want to see the best players in the world on the biggest stage of them all so a World Cup without one of the most in-form players on the planet just feels wrong. And in an extremely harsh way, it is all Portugal’s fault.After a terrible start to the campaign which saw them drop points in three of their first five qualifiers, including at home to Northern Ireland, they were within touching distance of topping their group, only to concede a late equaliser at home to Israel in their penultimate qualifier, falling into the lottery of the play-offs in the process. On the other hand, Sweden were drawn against Germany so it was always going to be near impossible to gain automatic qualification, making these play-offs inevitable.But who will come out on top in this two-legged affair and make to the World Cup, Ronaldo or Ibrahimovic?They are two great goalscorers. You will not find two more in-form strikers in the whole world currently, both the forwards are coming into this game off the back of impressive hat-tricks last weekend. In total, Ibrahimovic has netted eight times in the league and seven times in four games in the Champions League, making that 15 in all competitions for all you mathematicians out there.(uk.eurosport.yahoo.com)ANN.Az
