England coach Hodgson: Ibrahimovic's fourth was crowning glory

England coach Roy Hodgson was stunned by Zlatan Ibrahimovic's fourth goal for Sweden last night.

Ibrahimovic's 25-yard overhead kick for the fourth goal shocked everyone inside the new Friends Arena.

Hodgson said: "The fourth goal was the crowning glory.

"It is a wonderful goal. I would rather have seen it against someone else."

PSG striker Ibrahimovic smiled: "When I saw the long ball I saw the goalkeeper come out I was thinking should I go in the duel or should I wait for him to put it out?

"When he put it out I had it in my mind that I would try to score. It was a nice goal."
