Sven Goran Eriksson, former Manchester City and England manager, passed away at 76 following a terminal cancer diagnosis. His impact on football, particularly England’s early 2000s success, will be remembered.
Under Eriksson, England achieved notable victories including a historic 5-1 win against Germany in Munich and a crucial qualifier against Greece, showcasing his immediate influence as manager.
During his tenure at Manchester City, Eriksson rejuvenated the team, leading them to significant performances including an impressive league double over United, ending a 27-match winless streak at Old Trafford.
Although the latter half of his time at City saw some struggles, including a shocking 8-1 defeat and an unusual FA Cup exit, Eriksson is still warmly remembered by fans.
