Sweden faced Australia in their second group game.

Then they won 4-2.

Now "The Matildas" is also waiting in the semifinals.

- We were not really happy with the performance last time, so we hope we can do better.

It will be tough and we know that we will have to work extremely hard if we want to get to a final, says Hanna Glas.

But you should not only get past Australia's defense, but also stop the goal machine Sam Kerr.

In the match against Sweden, she was noted for two goals, and was about to complete her hat trick when Hedvig Lindahl stopped Kerr from the penalty spot.

- She is in very good shape and scores a lot of goals, we know that.

She is extremely talented and important for Australia, says Glas.

"Will be a brand new match"

And that Kerr created a lot of problems for Sweden last time is not something that escaped Stina Blackstenius.

- We know their way of playing and their strong players.

Last match we had problems in the press game, we have to get it in order.

And of course we have to keep track of Sam Kerr who has been incredibly good and created a lot of problems against us lately, says the striker.

In the last six months, Sweden has already faced Australia twice - and on Monday it will be the third time.

But according to Nathalie Björn, it will probably not look quite the same in the semifinals.

- It will probably be a completely new match with a lot of struggle, and hopefully we will win it.

"Hope to be able to continue on that track"

- We have a fantastic offensive with different types of players who have started shooting, says Björn.

And if anyone has scored a goal for Sweden, it is Stina Blackstenius.

- I hope to be able to continue on the track I started.

It is of course difficult to say how it will go before a match, but I hope to continue as I did and still feel in good shape.

Despite the fact that it will be tough against Australia, Hanna Glas came with a reassuring message.

- We do a lot of things well and that is why we win the matches as we do.

I do not feel worried, we do what we should, success will come with it.
