On Monday, Katie Fraine suffered a feared concussion in the match against Djurgården, and Milica Kostic is already finger injured.
Thus, most things now indicate that goalkeeping coach Gudbjörg Gunnarsdóttir, 36, will most likely play against IFK Kalmar tomorrow - despite the fact that she ended her active career in the summer of 2020, when she left Djurgården.
- I have been with a few single passes at the end and did 45 minutes when F19 met the A-team here a while ago.
So of course, should it be the case that I need to play, I can do it, she says to Eskilstuna-Kuriren.
Untimed on posts
Gunnarsdottir has plenty of routine, with 60 international matches for Iceland and over 150 matches in the damallsvenskan.
But she admits she has lost a lot since ending her career.
- I'm not completely timed on posts and free kicks maybe, I have not played in a long time.
But it's not that I'm nervous that I would do away with myself.
I will take what I have to take, but you can not demand that I take the shots at the crossroads.
I must not be naive, I will not be like when I was at my best, she says, and quickly closes the door for a permanent comeback:
- God no.
But you can ask me again on Sunday, if it goes really well, I will say: "Sure, we will drive the rest of the season!", But if it goes to hell, it was my first and last match in United, she says with a laugh.
