Norway made a heroic effort in Valencia, was a Spanish penalty goal from getting a score.
there were harsh words in the dressing room after the match. And He was asked if he had lost the dressing room.
– You may ask guttarna if I have lost the closet (locker room), he replied with a smile, and turned to Håvard Nordtveit and Markus Henriksen, who sat with him at the podium.

did a lot to trade if Lagerbäcks links to the Swedish team. Before he took over Norway, he acted as a sounding board to Janne Andersson and Peter Wettergren. Was with the Swedish landslagssamlingarna, acted extra eye from the stands during the matches.
