Zećira Mušović became a big hero when Sweden progressed to the quarter-finals of the World Cup.

Afterwards, she was asked if she knows Zlatan Ibrahimovic. It sends a BBC reporter into a frenzy.

“Totally disrespectful after such a fantastic effort,” writes Emma Smith Twitter.

Zećira Mušović was the name on everyone’s lips after the insanely dramatic penalty shootout against the USA.

Afterwards, the 27-year-old was praised worldwide.

Mušović made several decisive saves and set a new championship record for the number of saves (11) in a World Cup match for a goalkeeper who kept a clean sheet.

But at the press conference after the match, a Brazilian journalist chose to focus on something else. She was asked if she knows Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

She adds:

“In addition to that, we had to ask Musovic three questions at the press conference. One of them was this shit”.
