September 6th In the fifth round of Group B of the World Cup in the European qualifiers, Sweden was tied 2-2 by Slovenia. After the game, Swedish coach Thomasson was interviewed and talked about the game.

"The second goal is a mistake we shouldn't have on defense. When you lose the ball as you are near the end of the game, you will naturally feel disappointed and extremely disappointed. We wanted to win this game, but when you calm down you realize that it is difficult to do with such an emotional state, but the overall performance of the team is still good."

Speaking of goalkeeper Robin Olson with butter hands, Thomason maintained: "He has saved the team many times, and we shouldn't blame him."

Asked whether he felt like he had scored one point or two points, Thomason said: "It was definitely two points."

"What I'm satisfied with today is that I think The players still did a very good job, they performed very well. We discussed the running issue, and today we did improve. The first 45 minutes were great, maybe it took 15 to 20 minutes to get into the form at the beginning of the second half. We performed well afterwards, the opponent was a very strong team, they played in the European Cup, and we didn't. "

" We knew they were hard to deal with, they were very strong in quick conversions, and we also knew they were excellent in set pieces. At the same time, we knew that as long as the pressure was put in, they would have some mistakes, we scored two beautiful goals this way, and I actually thought we would win the game at the last moment, which I expected. "

" I think we were very steady when playing away against strong teams, so I don't plan to name a player alone. Overall, the whole team and the players on the bench performed well. We wanted to play fast, and we did. I think we were playing with our hearts, which is obvious. We saw a united whole, which is what I like to see. I like to see the players working together and showing that spirit. "

" It is very difficult to replace a forward and replace a defender, because it means you have to retreat to your own penalty area and become passive, which is not me They. Obviously this is also Slovenia's advantage, and they have strong crossing and top-square abilities. Therefore, I think that such substitution would be a wrong choice and an unwise decision. "

As for why Isaac did not play, Thomasen explained: "We really want to let him play directly, but he only trained three times, there was no normal preseason. He didn't play in three months, so it's too risky to go directly. He is definitely a player who can change the game, but we must be realistic and we must consider the most favorable approach for his short-term and long-term development."
