Poked from the European Championships.
Now he tells Andreen Hegerberg and Katherine Larsen the disappointment.
– I got the letter on my birthday, says Hegerberg.
– I was very sad, says Larsen.
Of course, it’s not just Sweden that evokes passions.
In Norway, Andrine Hegerberg had high hopes of being selected and taking home the summer championship with her little sister and world star Ada.
but not.
Despite suffering a cruciate ligament injury and moving to Häcken for more playing time – and admiration – that wasn’t enough all the way to captain Martin Sjögren’s squad.
Thus, it will now be Andreen Hegerberg’s summer vacation.
Unfortunately, she says.
“Sarcastically”
The selection happened to coincide with her birthday on June 6.
– Yes, Martin called me the night before the band’s presentation … On my birthday, she sighs.
how did you find it?
– It was just a mockery. Like this day I write. But the best sports are tough. I’ve been through this before. Of course she gets a little frustrated, but she gets up again, Hegerberg says.
“very sorry”
Another who was hoping to take part in the European Championships this summer is Danish goalkeeper Katherine Larsen.
Hammarby took her on a short-term contract when Anna Taminen was due to have surgery and Larsen had to play several matches in the cup match when Bagen almost reached the final.
But well at damallsvenskan, I only got two starts.
Then the European Championship dream was shattered as well.
– I was very sad and incomprehensible when I received the letter, but this is not my decision, she says.
Federation captain Lars Sondergaard explained to her that the petting was based on a lack of playing time.
– But now it’s only been two months since I haven’t played a lot of matches and I don’t forget how to play football at that time…
How will you follow the European Championships from home?
– It’s going to be tough. I think I should take a vacation and try to stay away from it for a while.
Shouldn’t you watch matches?
– Can. I don’t know frankly. But of course I will support the girls. They deserve all the success, says Larsen, who is now leaving Hammarby to return to Brondby.
