The Swedish Championship gold favorite Rögle was hard pressed by the barking gang Oskarshamn in the quarter finals.

It took seven matches to crown a winner.

Finally, it was Rögle who won and went on to the semifinals.

SVT Sports expert Maria Rooth is skeptical of what the basic series winner delivered against Oskarshamn.

- Rögle has not reached the level it had before at all.

If they are to go further, they need more, she says.

Rooth continues:

- In the series, they were the best when it came to efficiency.

During the playoffs, they have been extremely ineffective.

There they have to rise many steps.

She also emphasizes that Oskarshamn surprised positively and should be proud of the effort.
