A great piece of football history!
You're correct, Zlatan Ibrahimović announced his retirement from international football after Sweden's exit from the Euro 2016 tournament. Sweden was eliminated in the group stage, finishing third in Group E behind Belgium and Italy.
Ibrahimović, who was 34 at the time, had been a key player for Sweden throughout his career, scoring 62 goals in 116 appearances. He had previously represented Sweden at three European Championships (2004, 2008, and 2012) and two World Cups (2006 and 2014).
In a statement, Ibrahimović said: "I've decided to stop playing for Sweden. I've had a great career, but I think it's time to stop. I'm proud of what I've achieved, but I think it's time to let the younger players take over."
Ibrahimović's decision was met with widespread respect and admiration from fans, teammates, and opponents alike. He remains one of the most successful and iconic Swedish footballers of all time.
