She is selected for Sweden's final European Championship qualifying matches.

Now the question is whether Häcken's Anna Sandberg can join the gathering.

The defender injured herself in the 0–0 match against Kristianstad.

After just over 20 minutes of the Damallsvenskan match at Bravida Arena, Anna Sandberg lay down on the artificial turf.

After a few minutes of treatment on the pitch, the 21-year-old hobbled off the pitch with a bandaged knee.

How serious the injury is remains unclear – and how it will affect Sandberg's participation in Sweden's upcoming European Championship qualifying matches.

Häcken player is, after all, selected in national team captain Peter Gerhardsson's squad for the qualifying finale, when Sweden faces France on July 12 and England four days later. The national team gathers on July 8, and before that, Häcken meets bottom-placed Trelleborg.

Second-placed Häcken is chasing leading Rosengård but dropped two crucial points in the home match against Kristianstad when the match on Hisingen ended 0–0.
