Kosovare Asllani, a.k.a. "La Belle Zlatan," will face the United Statesin the group stage of the Women's World Cup. We cannot overstate how excited we are that there's a lady Zlatan. The world has needed one. Asllani, like Zlatan, is an outspoken native Eatern European whose parents immigrated to Sweden who now rips it up for PSG and the Swedish National Team. Followers of Zlatan's storied career, both on and off the field, might conclude that one Zlatan is all the world can handle. This is patently false. Two Zlatans are better than one.
This point is not debatable. Skip to the 1:15 mark on the video to find out all about La Belle Zlatan, whose highlights you can watch here.
DOUBLE THE ZLATAN. It's like a double rainbow but Swedish and much better at soccer.
