”Zlatans attack mot damfotbollen rör om i grytan ordentligt såhär i julefriden”. Aftonbladets framställning av damlandslaget i fotboll under 2013.

Abstract
In this essay I analyze how the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet describes the Swedish women soccer team. The purpose of this essay is to discuss how Aftonbladet portrays the female body within the context of being an active sports body. The analysis is applied in a thematic content analysis and is based on theories of Judith Butler about gender and performativity and Marion Youngs theories on patriarchal structures and how they affect women's behavior patterns and physical activity and the five faces of oppression. This analysis shows that there is a major problem in how Aftonbladet presents the Swedish women soccer team, as it is based on normative images and this can limit women’s opportunity to challenge their own body’s physical limits.
