July 28, 2008

Mestrock.se has uploaded 30 high-quality photos of Saturday's (July 26) soccer game between the official IRON MAIDEN team, Iron Maiden FC, and Gothenburg, Sweden's Paddington's Allstars that took place a few hours before MAIDEN's concert at the Ullevi stadium in Gothenburg. In scorching heat (one of the warmest days of the Swedish summer so far),Iron Maiden FC won by 5 goals to 2. MAIDEN bassist Steven Harris scored two goals and said afterwards that he was happy his team got revenge for the loss in Gothenburg in 2005.

Later the same evening, IRON MAIDEN played to its biggest Swedish audience yet, with official ticket sales figures of 56,132, according to Live Nation. The concert received the highest possible ratings (5 out of 5) in the two major Swedish newspapers Expressen and Aftonbladet.
