TAMMERFORS. Lucas Wallmark missed the last two games.
The reason: food poisoning.
– I was a little frustrated for a while. Fortunately, you’re from the North, says the World Cup Center.
The 26-year-old from Umea played first in the first two World Cup matches, but did not play in the match against Great Britain on Tuesday.
Woolmark also missed the Finland game on Thursday and national team captain Johann Garbenlov was unwilling to answer whether it was an injury or illness.
“bad chicken”
During Friday practice, the shooting king returned from the Olympics.
– I had food poisoning, he says and gave the go-ahead for the matches against the United States on Saturday.
what did you eat?
It must have been a bad chicken or something. It wasn’t fun. But I do it more now than later in the tournament. Nice to do that, Woolmark smiles.
He has some tough days behind him.
– She wasn’t the strongest, I might not normally be, but especially after that. But fortunately it passes in a few days.
ready for switzerland
During his absence, Wallmark, who terminated his contract with KHL CSKA Moscow in March, was introduced by ZSC Lions of Switzerland, where Rijkaard Grünborg takes over as coach.
He signed a three-year contract with Zurich FC.
– I heard very well about the club. Really good organisation. I know the technical staff before. I also heard about a good city. Woolmark says I look forward to it very much.
Woolmark, who previously played for Lulia in the SHL, says Sweden was not relevant.
– no not now. I still want to stay abroad.
