Football: Hanna Marklund on Häcken’s chances: “Hope is alive”

It is a big advantage for Paris SG, who are in season and were heavier, ahead of the return of the Champions League quarter-finals.

– Hecken does okay but does not reach a maximum performance that would have been needed to threaten PSG. There is a lot you can take with you, but PSG is stronger and more physical and has a better pace, says expert Hanna Marklund.

“They still have to believe it”

How will Häcken be able to turn this around in the return?

– They still have to believe in it and have made good efforts in the past. It is PSG who have the home field and will control the game. Then it can be even easier to surprise if you lie compact and get a chance to change positions.

The loss of Anvegård heavy

That important striker Anna Anvegård is suspended after a second yellow card in the tournament is costly for Häcken.

– Unfortunately, it will mean a lot. There is no player who can naturally take her position. When Häcken plays against such good opposition, it feels as if it is Rosa Kafaji and Anvegård who have seen to it that they ended up in good positions after their collaboration. It will be a challenge for Häcken.

Paris SG – Hecken will be played on March 28 at 9 p.m.
