Antonio Candreva (via goal.com): "Ibrahimovic is a great player, he'd be a threat to any team but we have to play our own game first of all. We must be good at exploiting their weaknesses. Ibrahimovic has shown how good he is on the pitch. We always expect a lot from him, it's normal. We were already preparing for Sweden, we have tested specific tactics. Every game must be addressed as against Belgium, we would like to close the group against Sweden."
