For two months, like a crazy tramp chess player, she ticked the wrong boxes.
Hedvig Lindahl saved Balls her whole life.
Now someone has to save her.
Djurgården’s new acquisition says Djurgården has a very bad reputation.
Moving home will make me the best goalkeeper, the goalkeeper said, and I conceded two cheap goals.
– I hope our fans are positive. The name of the poster for the emotional derby between Stockholm’s two fiercest rival clubs said the negative energy had to look elsewhere.
And so it continued Hedwig Lindahl.
The distance only increases
One thing it was disappointing from a mathematical point of view. With the Olympic champion among entries in four consecutive matches, Djurgården raised his average for goals conceded and did not get any points. The ball landed at the front post, via finger tips and into an unfortunate bob caused by a back leg.
But it can be swallowed. In front of Feizhou on Monday, after all, she seemed to have reached the pace.
Even worse, each attempt to connect with the fans only increased the distance between them. Hedvig gave autographs to opponent’s fans after a stinging loss. She praised the game in the second half after a game that had already been in the first half. And as Lindahl addressed the difficulties she had with acclimatization, with so many people laughing at her expense, she concluded with the delightful statement espoused by IFK Norrköping and IFK Göteborg:
– Comrades forward.
Indeed, one must gently explain and see how her failed communication reveals the narrow framework of supporter culture. We want our elite players to speak freely – but we get angry when they say the wrong thing. In this way, Hedvig Lindahl is a reporter who rapes walls like a goalkeeper.
He obviously wants the other way
To some extent it is. The public conversation on fans revolves largely around a certain clique of onlookers – those often called the posh youngsters – who don’t think anything is more stupid than so-called Christmas trees, the spoiled, face-painted zeros who don’t. See the difference between fullback and winger. This group is important to football, without it, fewer tornadoes would have been unleashed, and without it the stadiums would have been quieter. But they are not in the majority. They are automatically no more devoted than the aunt and the old man in the seat. Their desires do not trump who buys the ticket because it is very beautiful and salutes beautiful goals no matter which side scores them.
The theme has been updated with the strong rise of women’s football. On the one hand, one should be glad that audience records, TV contracts and transfer fees ultimately provide more likely terms for half-baked Allsvenskan players. On the other hand, there is the concern that they have taken the same wrong path as men’s football, where the list of money has led to the purchase of teenagers who have lost touch with reality for billions of oligarchs. to fierce competition.
Hedvig Lindahl clearly wants to go in a different direction. that’s sweet.
‘I gained insight’
But nevertheless, its status has become unsustainable. There is a limit to how you can make yourself unlovable, because when your likable value seems like ignorance. Zoos are no companions, even if that sounds cute, nothing more than they wear black and yellow or sing that they are strong today.
Djurgården had already met the star’s signature (but “not an extension call,” sporting director Jean Palau said), but that didn’t seem to be enough.
They must have another one. for longer. They should help her examine all charitable ideas about the women’s league, so that, like her predecessors, she can raise the bar for her sport without trampling on their feelings, symbols, and rituals. Signing autographs for kids is a good thing, and highlighting some successful second-half sequences against Vicho in the midst of a sporting crisis is inappropriate.
Hedvig wrote on Instagram, “I gained great insight into how it works in the support culture.”
It is clear that she has not fully learned.
