The Sweden stat that is very, very good news for Robbie Brady ahead of Euro 2016 opener

Unleash the left peg.

Robbie Brady has been inconsistent with his set pieces so far in a senior international jersey but the Irish faithful know what he's capable of. https://twitter.com/Patch99/status/535024453177335808 Against Holland, in the last game the Dubliner played in preparation for Euro 2016, the Norwich full back's deliveries were bloody deadly. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/736277210047389696 The player ratings that night during the 1-1 draw summed up just how orgasmic Brady's left foot was.

"His left foot was pure filth - in the good sense of the word," Brady's rating read. "Set pieces were frightening. Curled a free kick from the left that had the Dutch ‘keeper reaching with his eyes closed just hoping to get something on it. "Whipped in a ferocious corner for the opening goal right onto John O’Shea’s head. Set up Shane Duffy with another glorious delivery straight after the break and, about five seconds later, another free kick forced a Dutch player to deflect just past the post. "Then, about three seconds after that, he put one on Duffy’s head again but the Derry man blazed over from the corner."

https://twitter.com/ConanDoherty/status/736285091425595393 Brady is coming good at just the right time. No longer are there question marks over his ability to play at full back. No longer - dare say it - is anyone cursing him for hitting the first man from his crosses. Brady is a player - a proper player - and he could do some damage for Ireland in France. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/736324392930713600 It makes for grim reading for Sweden if the 24-year-old is intent on maintaining those sky-high standards, especially if the Swedes are intent on maintaining their sky-high foul count. Zlatan and Co. are guilty of committing the most fouls during the qualifiers as they chopped down the opposition a total of 156 times en route to Euro 2016. https://twitter.com/Sportdec/status/741201081041072129 Erik Hamrén's men are conceding an average of 13 free kicks a game which amounts to more and more opportunities for Brady to deliver quality into the danger zone. And, sure, if they make those fouls anywhere near the box, they might just regret it.
