Daniel Svensson
24-Year-Old
Borussia Dortmund
Bundesliga
Surprise start against France
Svensson logged two accurate crosses and two tackles won in Tuesday's 3-0 defeat against France.
ANALYSIS
Even though Sweden qualified for the World Cup's knockout stage, it was mostly without Svensson. For the Swedes' group-stage games, he barely logged more than 15 minutes and 10 passes. But for the Sweden-France game, Sweden opted to bench wingback Alexander Bernhardsson in favor of Svensson. Playing 90 minutes from the flank against an active France explains how he logged Sweden's most accurate crosses and tackles won, positives from his team's relatively disappointing performance. Now that the Swedish team's WC is finished, Svensson will shift his focus to club level and Borussia Dortmund.
