– We bring a cocky humility with us and have the most focus on our own game. It will be a very fun match and the kind of matches you want to play, a favor, says the league captain Ulf Lundberg to SVT Sport.
Given the massacre in Örebro, Lundberg notes the word “important”:
– There I get so “raise my eyes a little grand and see what happens in Sweden and outside the world,” says Lundberg.
Bergström had to take the puck with them home
The defensively schooled slope Paula Bergström followed up in an attack and shot via the goalkeeper 6-0 at the end of the second period.
– We got up to speed and got a dividend. It was fun to make the first goal in the national team and I get to bring the puck home, or something, says Paula Bergström.
It was the second straight win for the women’s crowns that end the qualification in Gävle on Sunday by meeting Denmark.
Sweden has never missed an Olympics
There will be a pure group final between two full points. The winner in Sunday’s match will take home the Olympic ticket to the championship next year where all matches will be played in two arenas in Milan.
– Sweden is a better team in all teams, maybe not on the goalkeeper side, but Denmark will bite as long as they can, says expert Maria Rooth before that match.
Sweden has never missed an Olympic finals.
The Netherlands goalkeeper Eline Gabriele received a prize as her team’s best player. Sweden won the shots with 80-9.
– The wood wins is usually said, says Ulf Lundberg.
The Netherlands’ most qualified person was in the booth. Canadian Jennifer Wakefield, 35, is the assistant coach for the team. The Olympic and World Champion has played for lots of Swedish clubs and ended the active career in Modo 2023.
