Graham Potter, coach of the Swedish national team, has clamped down on tactics ahead of the crucial playoff semi-final against Ukraine. He refuses to confirm sticking with a four-back line and has ordered players to stay silent. “He has said he wants to keep low on that and it's the same for us players,” Gustaf Lagerbielke told Nerikes Allehanda. Tuesday and Wednesday's training sessions at Parador de El Saler south of Valencia were closed to media and curious tourists. Additionally, Williot Swedberg and Gustav Lundgren are question marks for the match, according to Potter.
