A heavy loss in the semifinals means that Sweden must instead focus on a bronze match.

But the team stood for a fighting effort against the world team France.

- I think the girls fight meritoriously and make a heroic effort but it is not enough all the way.

It is an even match with small details that decide in France's favor.

Our central defense was not good overall.

We do not meet the French.

There was no peace and quiet there, says Magnus Grahn after the match.

According to Grahn, there were two factors that ultimately brought down Sweden.

- There are two things that stand out.

On the one hand, the central defense, which did not reach the capacity they have shown before.

Then we had huge problems stopping Zaadi and their middle six Foppa.

The second is that we burn too many finishes.

It was a bit too stressful in the crucial situations, he says.

The bronze match is played on Sunday against either Norway or ROK.
