- Six of Sweden’s squad play for clubs in WSL
- ‘We are going to have a plan … a very good plan,’ says coach
Sweden’s coach, Peter Gerhardsson, believes his squad’s vast experience of the Women’s Super League means England will hold few surprises in Tuesday’s Euro 2022 semi-final.
The world’s second-ranked team booked their place at Bramall Lane courtesy of a stoppage-time victory over Belgium on Friday. Six of their squad play in the English top flight – Magdalena Eriksson at Chelsea, Stina Blackstenius at Arsenal, Filippa Angeldal at Manchester City, Emma Kullberg at Brighton plus the Everton duo of Nathalie Bjorn and Hanna Bennison – and Gerhardsson said their knowhow would be invaluable against the host nation.
