A local hero and football (soccer) megastar, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the son of Bosnian immigrants, was born and raised in Malmö. Zlatan played in Sweden from 1994-2001, and currently plays for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). Although he plays for France, his face is everywhere here and he is well loved. Thus, when the PSG was scheduled to travel to Malmö for tonight's second leg of their Champions League competition, fans were disappointed and frustrated when tickets quickly sold out. Thus, hero to the rescue: Zlatan, feeling it is a pity that the entire city could not fit inside the stadium, generously booked Malmö's large square to publicly broadcast the match live! Pretty cool!
