Barcelona had many dangerous chances against Wolfsburg in the Champions League semi-final. But when it came to most things, Fridolina Rolfö stepped forward.
She scored the only goal of the match and sent the German big club to the final.
"That's really good"SVT Sports' Frida Östberg pays tribute to the Swedish national team striker.
- It's important to be there. She was good in the match. To me, she is one of Sweden's best players when she's whole. I think she has developed a lot in her game in Wolfsburg, both in the play-off phase and in terms of her physique. She is good at being able to read and win the surface in front of the back line. Super fun that she gets playing time and takes care of herself - it's great, says Östberg.
How big is this?
- It is fantastically big. They have won the league, won the cup and are betting on winning the Champions League. Then they need players who can step forward and it is unbelievable that she is one of those players. She belongs to one of the best club teams in Europe, so she has to appreciate this very highly.
Lotta Schelin won the Champions League three times with Lyon, Caroline Seger won with Lyon and Nilla Fischer has taken home the tournament with Wolfsburg. There are several players who have made an impression in the tournament.
"It's a role model"Östberg does not want to rank Rolfö's contribution. She just wants to pay tribute to the striker.
- Wolfsburg, together with Lyon, are the dominant club teams in Europe. Wolfsburg is a club that the others are watching, it is a role model. This is how other clubs want to work with their organization, says Östberg and continues:
- To have a Swedish player there is fantastic. It's clear that it's big. I think she has more big matches ahead of her if she stays. All the achievement where you manage to get to the final is admirable.
