Sheffield. The players are not happy.
Not the leader of the league either.
– If we want to get to the quarter-finals, we have to rise clearly, I think everyone understands that, he says.
After 1-1 against the Netherlands, Sweden beat Switzerland 2-1.
Despite the win, many players were upset and cursed after the match. They were not happy with the team’s performance.
And their coach was not satisfied. The efforts, made mainly in the first half, raised questions.
– We had an entry throw and threw it at them twice, it’s frustrating that it is like that. When it comes to the passing game, we felt we used too many hits, says Gerhardsson and continues:
We have roles where we are the best and some of them didn’t end up in their best positions. I became more accommodating when you had to be in depth and a bit of something else. There, I guess we weren’t clinical enough, he says Peter Gerhardson He stated before leaving “home” for Carden Park in Chester:
I can’t wait to get on the bus and watch the game again.
“We have to beat Portugal”
However, without further analysis he can state that Sweden need a moment to succeed in the possible upcoming qualifiers.
– Obviously we have to get better. Performance today we were hoping for more. He says we still have steps to take.
He believes that the demands are high from the players themselves and the leaders.
At the same time, the focus is here and not too far away:
– We need to beat Portugal, we can’t even start watching the quarter-finals yet.
