It is no secret that Blågult has a hard time against a low standing and compact defensive game.
Against Scotland it was the same show and it took until the 72nd minute before it came loose for Sweden.
- Sweden does not threaten in the way I want to see them in and around the penalty area.
You have a challenge when you face a low defense, at the same time you have to have a little patience.
Scotland gets tired and then Sweden has to bear fruit from the jumpers, says SVT Sports expert Markus Johannesson.
"Great backwards"
It was a convulsive Swedish effort in horrible weather conditions.
Despite that, the defense on Johannesson impressed.
- Sweden is doing very well backwards and does not miss a single goal chance in the entire match.
In addition, the expert praises the intruders.
- It is not always obvious that jumpers will change the match picture, but they did in this match, he says and continues:
- Fridolina Rolfö, Sofia Jakobsson and Hanna Bennison probably felt a certain desire for revenge.
They were not up to the level I expected against Ireland, but today they proved their worth.
