It’s the mess that all of football Sweden is talking about today.
Janne Andersson was furious with Bojan Djordjic.
But everyone has also noticed what the presenter Niklas Jihde did in the middle of the huge brawl.
Sweden ran over Azerbaijan with a whopping 5-0 at Friends Arena on Monday evening and took their first victory in the European Championship qualifiers. But it’s what happened after the final whistle that got the big headlines last night.
Janne and Bojan
Because then the national team captain smoked Jan Andersson together with the expert Bojan Djordjic in Viaplay’s studio. On a simple question of why not the goalscorer Jesper Karlsson got to play more, so Janne fired up straight away and counter-attacked.

The national team captain was really annoyed to receive criticism after a 5-0 victory and the Viaplay studio could be a little more happy about Sweden’s effort, instead of finding fault. The huge fight between Janne and Bojan has during the night and now this morning been a huge talking point in football Sweden and on social media.

The biggest fight on TV
A lot has already been said about the row after Sweden’s match, but in addition to what was said between them, attention is also being paid to the Viaplay presenter Niklas Jihde for what he did live.

Because when the fight intensified the most, Jihde wanted to stop everything and with his hockey background he simply made a “time out” sign to calm them both down, see the picture below.
– Extremely strange. I have not experienced this before in a studio after. It came very unprepared, says the presenter to SportExpressen.
– It is clear that it was an unpleasant situation for everyone who stood there. It’s not fun for anyone. Not for Janne Andersson either. We are not there to hunt anyone down. It’s our job to ask questions.

Jihde’s words last night
Also the expert colleague Fredrik Ljungberg was really surprised by how Janne Andersson lit up.
– I am shocked, says Ljungberg in the Viaplay broadcast.
– I have been in football for 20-25 years and have never seen anything like this.
Niklas Jihde then ended the evening with a clear message to the Swedish people after the high-profile fight, see the post below.
“Then we take a time out for this day. Three points for Sweden!”, writes the presenter humorously on Twitter.
