Lund before the Olympic final: "Will play at its absolute highest level"

After a thrilling semi-final, team Edin was finally able to defeat Canada 5-3.

- What a match they make, this level that they keep throughout the match is impressive, you can at least say.

I'm completely out of my mind and I think they win this match deservedly, says Eva Lund.

Canada caught up with the game towards the end and put pressure on the Swedes.

But team Edin kept calm and had the millimeters on their side.

- Canada could have taken that second last round, but that is what makes me so impressed by Sweden.

It was tight between the stones but what Niklas does with the last stone is magical.

The final round shows how curling is a millimeter sport when it comes to precision, she says.

Horror meeting with the big rivals

Sweden will now face Great Britain in the final, which was ranked world number one before the championship.

- These two teams are at the top of the world because in all their positions they have players who have the entire register of different types of types.

There will be small things that will decide this final and it is important to be on the right side of those margins, says Lund.

As Britain won the group final between the two nations, they get an advantage in having the last stone.

- It is a small advantage, but only a small one.

But it will hopefully be an equally even match as this, with a decision at the end of the match, says Lund.

"The collective responsibility"

Team Edin's goal is to take an Olympic gold and Lund believes that they are well prepared for that task.

According to the expert, Sweden will play just like against Canada - and she believes that they will perform at their absolute highest level.

- All four players know what is expected of them, they must put pressure on their respective opponents with each stone they play for the level of difficulty for the other teams to go up.

- It is about the collective responsibility to put pressure on the opponent from the first stone in the first round.

They need to do that now against Great Britain - the same level of play and the same responsibility to carry out the match in the best way, she says.
