Dejan Kulusevski has not given up hope of the European Championship: "Bigger things have happened"

Dejan Kulusevski is looking forward to the away game against Belgium on Monday.

"Great game to play. Everything is still alive. The hope is there so I'm looking forward to the match. I'm sure we'll do a very good game," the national team star told SVT Sport.

Since group runners-up Austria are seven points ahead, Blågult no longer have the European Championship in their own hands.

"We know that Austria has to drop points. But bigger things have happened in football so I definitely think they will have a tough time, says Kulusevski.

"Do you know how much we've struggled?"

But the European Championship dreams may already be shattered before the match against Belgium on Monday. If Austria defeats Azerbaijan, the Blue and Yellow will have nothing to play for in the group.

However, this is not something that Kulusevski wants to focus on.

"Do you know how much we've fought to get to the national team? To play against Belgium, that alone is a big deal," he said.
