Sweden, which has not played a championship since 1983, can now play two straight European Championships.

This was confirmed earlier in the day.

- Sweden might have been able to get a place even in the event of a loss if the next host country had been among the top eight.

But now it is definitely clear, says Ferraro.

It is thus an incredible success that the Swedish volleyball ladies have succeeded with.

And the blue-yellow successes are something that the European Union is very happy about

-– It was a long time since any of the Scandinavian countries were included in these contexts.

We need them to build interest in sport throughout Europe.

Sweden's advancement is very important for building interest.

And what a match your girls made, says Ferraro.

It is not yet clear where the EC 2023 will take place.
