Sweden Players Talk Tough Ahead Showdown With Golden Eaglets

Midfielder Mirza Halvadzic believes Sweden can qualify for the final match of the Fifa Under 17s at the expense of Nigeria.<br /><br />&ldquo;We got far in order to win. Not to make a good match and applaud the fact that Nigeria is a good team. <br /><br />&ldquo;We want to win and are just one game from the final.<br /><br />&ldquo;They&rsquo;re probably still shaky after our meeting. They have problems with us and do not really know how to play against us,&rdquo; Mirza Halvadzic was quoted as saying by <i>Expressen</i>.<br /><br />Center back Linus Wahlqvist is confident that the Swedish defense can survive the onslaught of the Golden Eaglets strikers.<br /><br />&ldquo;Their offense is really good. They are top class in the headlines. But our defensive is really good too. <br /><br />&ldquo;Since we are the only team to have played a draw with them, it has made them respect us,&rdquo; said the IFK Norrk&ouml;ping youngster.<br /><br />Sweden are playing in the semi - final of the Fifa Under 17 World Cup for the first time.<br /><br />Photo Credit : fifa.com<br />
