Sweden called for a penalty at the beginning of the second half, when the ball after Dejan Kulusevski's input took Dejan Lovren's hand in the penalty area.
After the match, he was asked about that situation, and the referee's contribution.
- Those we have in the stands who sit with the pictures think it is a penalty, and all players on the field thought it was a penalty.
So I do not contradict them in my argument.
But I can not say for sure whether it is punishment or not, because I have not seen it so clearly.
Then I thought that the refereeing effort in general was very mixed, he said at the press conference.
- I thought he was uneven.
I thought there were many home team advantages in the decisions.
Based on my 52 international matches, this was probably one of the worse refereeing efforts.
It was not good, it was not.
Then I'm not a judge, so maybe I'm completely wrong.
"We were worth a little more"
He was significantly more satisfied with the team's effort in the second half.
- I think we were worth a little more today.
But you can not just stare blindly at the results.
It's sour as hell to lose.
But otherwise I think there is a lot of good that we can take with us.
I am convinced that we can find a lot that is good to take with us when we watch the match afterwards, he said.
