A strong Swedish winger could very well be a key factor in the World Cup drama in Houston.

Bernhardsson, who started in the 5-1 win over Tunisia, will play a key role there. He will be the one to supply passes to Viktor Gyökeres and Alexander Isak, among others.

No matter who you look at, they manage it well. They are both class players; they showed that in the last game. They take advantage of every chance they get and make something of it.

We are incredibly happy to have them with us. They do an incredible job. It doesn't matter who you ask. When they get the pass, they deliver.

Bernhardsson also points out how important the attackers are to the team's defensive play.

They fight and make it difficult for the opposing defenders.
