The head coach of the Swedish national team, Graham Potter, commented on the results of the draw for the 2026 World Cup qualification playoffs, where his team will face the Ukrainian national team.
Graham Potter’I must admit, it’s an exciting experience to be in the same room with all the other coaches during the draw; it makes the event even more interesting. Now we know who we will be playing against and eagerly look forward to this confrontation. We have plenty of time until the match, but I think it will fly by very quickly.
Our team was well aware that whoever we play against, we would be facing a proud football nation, and all away matches are tough.
We are lucky: if we get past Ukraine, the decisive match for a spot in the 2026 World Cup will be played on Swedish soil,' Potter is quoted as saying by Aftonbladet.se.
