Guthenberg. Haken captain Samuel Gustafson played a large part of the fall due to injury.
In the unusual football injury category.
“I pulled my hand on the door when we lost to Degerforce,” he reveals to Sportbladet.
The Swedish champions ran like a train during the autumn season at Allsvenskan. The big blocks were few.
One of them, when Häcken lost his 2-1 home lead against Degerfors in early September to 2-2 in overtime.
Then Haken’s captain, Samuel Gustafson, couldn’t control his anger.
He previously refused to talk about the background of the injury, a hand covered in a plaster cast, but he kept his promise to tell the truth when the season ended / decided.
– The right hand is slightly modified, he says 1.5 hours after the final whistle at Gamla Ullevi with the victory drink in the other:
We played, we played a good game, but we lost in overtime. Spilled a little on the way to the dressing room. I punched a door and broke my hand. I’ve got acting.
– But fortunately it was also possible to play with it. It affected me marginally, says Gustafson.
– So it was like I told you – it was related to the match. But I myself caused it.
How painful is it?
– Right at the time it didn’t hurt. The sad thing is that we lost points at home to Degerforce. You learn by living.
“I had a small team…”
How much flack have you received from your teammates?
– Not much anyway. But of course they think I’m an idiot. I think so do I.
– But since I’ve been able to play and perform decently during that time and even now, it’s no problem.
“Decent” is modest. The team captain was one of the Häcken players who sets the tone and is kept under the supervision of the national team captain Jan Anderson Before two Swedish training matches in November.
– I’ve had a small team for a while and now finally I’ve been playing with smaller protections so I don’t have blasts on it. It was a popular treatment for a broken hand, says Samuel Gustafson with a wide grin.
Will this evening heal another damage?
– I think I have to pump what is available and hope for the best, says the captain.
