Notes
Scored Krytenia's first goal in World Cup Qualifying, vs Lovebug

Unmistakeable by his blond bubble perm, Ulvæus made his name originally as...a substitute. He came on against Haperd for the ineffective Roger Celsen against Turori, and immediately caused problems for the Turorian defenders. Though he didn't score then, his time would come, as he bagged Krytenia's first World Cup goal in qualifying in the 2-1 reverse against Lovebug, and went on to bag a score more in a glittering international career in the famous front line with Ari Smith. Clubwise, he played a major part in Elliston's early dominance of the KEL, then became the first Krytenian to play abroad when he signed for Kingsford-based club Elders FC. He saw out his career at AFC Westleigh after the collapse of the Kingsfordian league.

Now, the perm is flecked with grey, the boyish smile more grizzled, but Colin Ulvæus is still leaving his mark on Krytenian football. Though New Westleigh's performances have been somewhat mediocre, it has been the fault of the players rather than the coach. Meanwhile, Ulvæus and Smith continue to wring the best out of the Krytenia "B" side.
