She had to act as a substitute against both the Netherlands and Switzerland, but in the last group game, 5-0 against Portugal, Johanna Rytting Kaneryd got the chance from the start and she hopes for a repeat in the quarterfinals against Belgium.
- It's great fun, these matches have been special, to play in front of so many spectators.
It's incredible that I get to experience this and I enjoy every second.
Getting the chance from the start last was just an incredible joy and I am really looking forward to the match against Belgium, says Häckenstjärnan.
Are you growing from the idea of entering a European Championship quarter-final?
- Yes, I'm probably someone who grows from playing big matches in front of a large audience, that's what I dreamed of and what I want to do so I would probably say that I grow from it.
Have you told the national team management?
- No, it's not something I told you, but hopefully they will see it in you if nothing else, but it's nothing you talk about.
If there is an extension and penalties, she will be well prepared.
- It is clear that you have to be prepared for such scenarios and it is something I have trained a little extra on, punish at the end of the training and so on.
