It is a rarity for two brothers to play together on the same team. Even more of a rarity is when you have three brothers playing on the same team. Such is the case with Kalmar FF of the Swedish Allsvenskan who thus far are the league's early leaders through five matches.
Victor, David, and Rasmus Elm along with their teammates currently hold a three point edge in the league but their grip on first will certainly be in jeopardy this weekend as they take on third-place side Hammarby IF.
Midfielder Victor Elm paces the brothers with three goals thus far. He also enjoyed a recent call to the Swedish National Team in January. Midfielder Rasmus also has contributed to the score sheet with one goal. Forward David has not scored.
Not to be outdone by the brothers, midfielder Patrik Ingelsten has been sensational for Kalmar scoring four goals including a hat trick against Ljungskile SK.
Three Brazilian attacking players are also on the club with forward César Santin scoring in 2008 against Ljungskile SK.
Will the three brothers lead their club to the Allsvenskan title? If so, this already feel-good story could end up feeling great.
