We get it!

Right, you’re good. Get over it already.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic looks set to make this build-up to June 13 as comfortable as he can for Ireland fans as he continues to go about his life in true Zlatan fashion.

The Republic play Sweden in Paris in their opening Euro 2016 game and with, Ibrahimovic pulling efforts like this out of nowhere, the travelling Irish might not take much solace from the fact that Sweden – as a whole – just aren’t that good anymore.

Because it doesn’t matter how good the opposition is really when someone can lash at a half chance, half volley like this in the blink of an eye.

PSG beat Caen 3-0 on Saturday to stretch their lead at the top of the French league to 19 points after just 19 games.

The match featured one of the greatest goalmouth scrambles we have seen in a long time but it also featured this piece of brilliance from Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

It’s getting old.
