NEW JERSEY. The WC adventure is over for Sweden.
Afterwards, the Swedish players were comforted by loved ones.
– It really means everything, says Jacob Widell Zetterström.
Sweden didn’t have much to say against France.
The French won with a clear 3–0 and that meant the end of the WC for Sweden.
Many players obviously had their loved ones there. They were consoled after the WC exit.
Lagerbielke is happy that the team was able to give the relatives a great experience during the WC.
– It was very nice. It’s been one heck of a journey, from the qualifiers to where we are now. To have them here and see their joy, to go to all the arenas and see cool matches and experience the atmosphere that the Swedish supporters have created, it has been fun to see. I am very happy for their sake that we have been able to give them that joy, he says.
Met the girlfriend
Taha Ali is grateful for the support.
– It has been wow. It’s been great having them here. Every time after the matches I go to them. They have been the best support, he says.
Jacob Widell Zetterström met his girlfriend and family afterwards.
– I cannot emphasize enough how important they have all been to me throughout the years. Having these really means everything.
Anthony Elanga is looking forward to spending more time with his family. In the stands sat the girlfriend and the daughter.
– That means everything. Now I will spend even more time with them during the holidays, says Elanga.
Have you been longing for it?
– Yes, damn it.
