No complaints from Lagerback
19 Jun 2008 - 08:38:32
Sweden coach Lars Lagerback had few complaints after seeing his side dumped out of Euro 2008 following a 2-0 defeat to Russia in Innsbruck.
Lagerback accepted that his side had been beaten by the better side, as they failed to progress to the quarter-finals of the competition.
He told UEFA's official website: "I'd like to congratulate the Russia team, they were better than us.
"We were too passive. They were creating chances while we weren't really creating anything.
"It's very sad as we haven't had this kind of experience since Euro 2000, where we failed to qualify from the group.
"I'm disappointed that we didn't get our game going. Maybe there is a mental factor involved that we're not a team that steps up from the very beginning."
