When I heard the news that forwardZlatan Ebrahimovich, a legend in the Swedish National team, has returned to the team after an absence of some years. I was afraidof that he was going to oust a young Eritrean Swedish player from his place. Ebrahimovich, did end up replacing some other players, but not Alexander.In the qualifiers match held on March 28, against Kosovo, both Alexander and Zlatan were in the front line. A shot was scored, not by the player next in line to Lionel Messi  andChristino Ronaldo, known for his great performance, remarkable  goals and  his famous quips, but by a young and humble footballer- Alexander Isaac. In this game whereSweden won 3-0, Alexander netted anexcellent goal at the 35th minute.

Alexander is a striker in Valencia, competing in the SpanishLa liga. He represents Sweden in national games but he also doesn'tforgethis country of origin, Eritrea. He proudly displays the flag of Eritrea in both his shirt and footwear, making Eritreans everywhere proud
