“Grahm: ”the Sun will go up””
“Erika Grahm, 28, went on a devastating expulsion with just over two minutes left in the loss against Japan.”
“But she does not think that the expulsion was decisive. “
“– It is clear that it was tough to let go into the goal. But it is not where we lose the game, ” she says. “
“Sweden accounted for a historic fiasco on Tuesday when they fell 3-2 to Japan. “
“with the loss, it is now games in the B CHAMPIONSHIP next year – for the first time ever. “
“the Indoor was 2-2 and went against the extension when Erika Grahm went on a expulsion for charging with just over two minutes left. “
“We have been convulsive”
“For Sportbladet, she explains how she experienced the situation.”
‘ I’d put pressure on her, but may not to it, and instead, so she goes into the rail. Right now it feels just crap, ” says Grahm. “
“What do you think about the expulsion in the final stages? “
“– It is clear that it feels tough to let go in goal then. But I don’t think we lose the game there. We could have decided earlier, ” says 28-year-old. “
“She has difficult to be able to analyze the game and say why it went as it did. But she argues that it is in part a mental issue. “
“– the Whole tournament we have been spasmodic. We have had a hard time making goals. We are starting the match briskly and plays well but fail to put the chances, and then maybe it will be something mentally. Sport is very complex, ” says Damkronornas forward. “
“According to her own views landslagsframtiden uncertain. She says that she still has not begun thinking about it yet. “
“– It has been a couple of hours so I have not thought about it so much after that. You never know if you will be selected or not. But I will always be available, both on and off the ice. “
“How to get back from such a loss? “
“– It is a very good question right now. But it is tough. We win as a team and lose as a team. The sun will always come up if you say so, ” says Erika Grahm. “
