A fantastic feeling, he says in Viaplay's broadcast.

It was a 2-1 home win against Slovakia in front of a large audience and all smiling faces when Sweden secured the group win. Jon Dahl Tomasson is particularly impressed by the team spirit and attitude of the player group.

We have a gang of star players who fight extremely hard for the team and everyone else does their part to help them. We created a lot of chances today. There were of course sloppy moments, like when we conceded the equalizing goal and an early chance in the first half, but a fantastic effort by the guys, he says.

When the Dane took over in February, advancing to the B division in the Nations League was mentioned as a requirement. The group win, the advancement, and the win against Slovakia mean a lot, he emphasizes.

I'm very proud to lead this team. It's my job to give the team direction and I think the players love that direction. They do everything for Sweden.
