Sweden warmed up for Euro 2016 in mundane fashion by drawing 0-0 with Slovenia in Malmo this evening.

The hosting Swedes were without their talisman Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who was rested by head coach Erik Hamren.

Without the charismatic centre-forward, Sweden lacked any major threat in the final third and rarely troubled the Slovenian defence.

During the first half, Jimmy Durmaz and John Guidetti both shot off target, while after the restart Sebastian Larsson sent a free kick over the crossbar.

Slovenia's Josip Ilicic also tried his luck from a set-piece situation, but could not keep his shot down.

Sweden have one more friendly - against Wales on June 5 - before their campaign in France gets underway.
