Edvardsen in front of Djurgården-Hammarby

The loss and prolonged speech became the result of Victor Edvardsen after his first derby in 08.

Before the match against Hammarby the striker has a wish.

– I hope we win, so it will be my turn to call someone, says the 26-year-old.

After losing the Djurgården derby in the spring, it was over Victor Edwardson In focus after criticism of how AIK celebrated victory. After that, Alexander Milosevic said:

“Sometimes it is difficult for some. You are the king of the village but you are a farmer in the capital. We just say that.”

Since then, the attacking star’s Bond seal has survived, but ahead of the derby against Hammarby, the 26-year-old was willing to switch roles.

What nickname do you want after this derby?

– I don’t know … I hope we win so that I can say something to someone now, says Edwardson with a smile.

You’re already getting excited with the crowd after the win over Sundsvall, how special are you?

– Maybe it was stupid? No, but they look forward to it as much as we do. It’s time to give the fans three points in the derby, we’re in good shape, so we’ll prepare and win, says Edvardsen.

“It was a very important conversation”

Djurgarden recruited Victor Edvardsen from Degerfors for six million pre-season. The striker was bought to score goals and win matches, but during the spring season the 26-year-old top scorer, who scored only four hits, did not lose. But against Sundsvall was the goal and two passes on the spot.

– Of course it is important to get a good start, my self-confidence needs to reach a few levels in order to be able to achieve it. I really tried to clear my mind during the break. I checked all the matches again and checked myself.

Have you talked to the coaching duo about what didn’t really work?

– I sat down and talked to both coaches about my role and how to make the most of my strengths. I also spoke to Bosse, it was a very important conversation.

Are you going to explode in the derby now?

– I really hope so. It feels very good. It’s going to be tough, there are two teams that want to lead the game. As long as it’s not a boring match, I’d rather have Hawaii and win 3-2 instead of 1-0.

– We will show the character and go to win. Then I don’t want to say much, Edwardson says and laughs.

The match between Djurgården-Hammarby starts at 15.00 today
