Head coach of the Swedish national team Graham Potter commented on the draw in the match with Slovenia (1:1) and the upcoming draw for the World Cup qualification playoff round, where the team’s potential opponents are Ukraine, Turkey, Italy and Denmark.
“It was important for us to take at least something from this match. It was not easy for the players, the selection did not go well at all. We have now closed this qualification window. The playoffs will be a new beginning for us.
We learned a lot. We are trying to lay the foundation, find stability and balance. Hopefully in March we won’t have to remind the players how we play. They will already have a certain base in memory after this gathering.
Everything is possible in March. We know that we have to beat two strong teams to go (to the WC). All four opponents are very good, but if our best players are back fit…”
