Only scoring the only goal of the match at the end of the game, Sweden's national team defeated Slovakia and with 4 points on their account became the leader of Group E. Sweden's national team coach Janne Andersson, commenting on the result of the match, said: "We have a unique style of play. In the first half of the match, we did not show good football, but in the second half, we showed how we want to play. We should have scored another goal in the second half of the match and we wouldn't have had to worry about the minimal lead against the opponents." "Our defense was good. We demonstrated organized football, and the players sacrificed themselves on the field for each other. Our attacking potential should have been 'rewarded' with more goals - because it was often fantastic." "This year we played 7 matches and only conceded one goal. If people think it's hard to play against us - I'm very happy about that opinion," added the coach.
