After victories against Serbia and Slovenia, Denmark awaits tonight in the last group stage match in the European Championship.
In case of victory, Sweden takes a maximum of four points to the main round and the best possible starting position to reach the semi-finals.
- This match is extremely decisive, but at the same time we should feel that nothing is clear.
Should we lose, we still have every opportunity, it's just that it will be a little more difficult.
But if we win against Denmark, we have very good conditions to take a semi-final place, says Linn Blohm.
All but three of the Swedish European Championship squad play or have played in the Danish league.
One of them is goalkeeper Jessica Ryde, who played great and with her 40 save percentage in two games is the best of all goalkeepers.
"More than just a handball match"
- I wouldn't have had this start if it wasn't for the extremely hard defense.
It is so much more than my performance.
But I'm absolutely super happy with what I've done, but it's still only two games, she says.
The 28-year-old plays in Ikast Handball and knows many of the players well.
- Many of us have close relationships.
I myself play with four or five players there.
So it's much more than just a handball match.
What does it mean that many of you know each other as players?
- After all, this "who wins out of who knows each other best" means little.
In the main round, the three best teams from Group A await, topped by Norway, followed by Hungary, Croatia and Switzerland.
