Ibrahimovic, the goal in the 100 – BBC Sport

If he manages to shake the nets Sunday at the Classic OM-PSG, Zlatan Ibrahimovic cross the symbolic 100 goals under the Parisian jersey in all competitions.

Where will Zlatan Ibrahimovic? The Swedish giant is in Paris for two and a half seasons but panics already all counters, clears the shelves one by one the greatest strikers in the history of GMP. Top scorer in the capital on a season in all competitions (41 goals last year) in front of Carlo Bianchi (39 goals in the 1977-1978 season), PSG’s top scorer in one season in the Champions League (10 goals last season) “Ibra” is just one realization of the record of goals scored by a Parisian player C1, owned by George Weah (16).

To match Rocheteau , to be closer to Pauleta
His gluttony is not ready to be sated. With all eyes on the title of top scorer in the history of the PSG, still in possession of Pauleta with 109 goals. But until when? Today, the record is clear on borrowed time. Author of a hat-trick in the final day against Lorient (3-1), Ibrahimovic now counts 99 achievements under the Parisian jersey (including 22 penalties and direct free kicks 6).

OM remains one of his favorite victims
Notwithstanding what its detractors, Ibrahimovic alone represents 23 Parisian goals this year in just 30 matches. Roughly the same proportions as in his first season in Paris (35 goals in 46 matches). “Ibra” marks again and again. 6 goals in his last 3 games with Paris. Besides his 3 goals with the Swedish selection 2 matches against Moldova (2-0) and Iran (3-1). At the start of the 100 wall, Ibrahimovic is still a thirsty beast of fame.

This is not without worry Marseille, one of its favorite prey in recent years with 6 Achievements in 6 matches . Only Saint-Etienne (8 goals in 8 matches), Brest (6 goals in 3 matches) and Lorient (6 goals in 4 matches) suffered more.
