Jonas Knudsen's long throw has become a dangerous attacking weapon for Malmö FF.
In the top match against Häcken, Malmö's 2-0 goal came in just such a situation when Knudsen found Isaac Kiese Thelin.
- It's one of our weapons.
You have heard from the opponents that they think it is boring with long throws and so on, but that means that we get three points and we take that every day, says Kiese Thelin to SVT Sport.
That there will be dangerous situations when Knudsen has to throw high up on the offensive half of the field was something that Häcken was well aware of.
- We know where the ball dims down, then you should also know that in addition to Knudsen's throw-in, they have Toivonen, Kiese Thelin, Berget and then they can stop some center back there as well.
They are good main players and that should be handled.
Now they scored a goal on it today and it is usually possible to score 6-7 goals on it per season, says Häcken's coach Andreas Alm to SVT Sport.
Erik Friberg is also on the same track.
- It's a giant weapon they have with Knudsen there.
We have trained on it but they do it well.
You can say that, he tells SVT Sport.
