Defender woe for Swedes
13 Jun 2008 - 11:39:08
Sweden will be without Niclas Alexandersson for Saturday's Group D meeting with Spain after the full-back picked up a calf injury.
Coach Lars Lagerback has already seen winger Christian Wilhelmsson ruled out of the rest of the tournament with a hamstring problem picked up in the 2-0 victory over Greece on Tuesday.
Veteran full-back Alexandersson strained a calf muscle late in the same game but is expected to miss only one group game.
"Had it been a more serious strain my Euro would have been over," he admitted.
"Having the opportunity to return is a good feeling. Hopefully our tournament will be a long one too."
