In the third round of Group B of the European Group Stage of the World Cup qualifiers, Sweden lost 0-2 at home to Switzerland. It had not won three games and was in danger of qualifying.

In this game, although Jocles and Isaac failed to score, they jointly created an excellent opportunity in the 47th minute, but teammate Berivar kicked the ball away from the mid-air goal.

After the game, Berivar also blamed himself in an interview: "This is so frustrating. We created opportunities and should have scored, especially me, but I didn't do it today. This is so disappointing. Isaac passed a very good ball, and I may have made a mistake in judgment. I should have scored the goal, and I am fully responsible for it."

However, for Berivar's missed opportunity, the Swedish teammates showed tolerance for him. Badji said: "I told him at halftime to forget about it and focus on the second half. This kind of thing will inevitably happen. I can understand the difficulty of facing this situation, but he has to let it go. This is football. There are always accidents. He played well and he will forget about it. I don't think it will cause him too much." Big impact."

Issac also said: "I would rather we lose because of the details than the mentality or our lack of effort. I also missed a good opportunity. This is part of competitive sports. Victory or failure often depends on the details. If luck is on our side, the result may be different."

Swedish midfielder Carlstrom said: "He is still young and has a bright future. Anyone may miss a good opportunity. He created opportunities. It is only a matter of time before he scores. I believe that his psychology is strong enough to continue to move forward. We will continue to support him."

Ball Team forward Ken Sema said: "This is football. He is young and talented. You can see his potential. He will only get better. It is a pity to miss the opportunity to score, but his strength is obvious to all. As teammates, we will fully support him. I also believe that he knows how to continue to improve himself in the future."
