Peking. Olympic curling is of interest when both Team Hasselborg and Team Edin play in the semifinals within 24 hours.
The Swedish women will face Great Britain, one of the two teams they lost to in the group stage.
– Anna Hazelborg says I would be crazy if I did not say we’re favorite in the playoffs to win Olympic gold, we’m in the semifinals, what can we do.
Sweden beat South Korea 8-4 in the final group match of the women’s tournament.
Was in second place with seven wins and two defeats, the team showed mental strength after the initial bangs and finished with five straight wins.
– It was a tough start and it’s hard to keep up. We have good speech, patience and confidence in ourselves. Now a position we want. Agnes Nochenhour says we want to maximize the space we have on the team and get better, and then work at a full-fledged high level in the playoffs.
Want revenge
Great Britain and China lost to Sweden in the group stage, losing 8-2 to Great Britain, and the Swedish women must now seek revenge.
– It oscillates a bit at times, but it shows how strong a team we are. England have an incredibly strong team and there should not be a bad match against them or even a bad game like the one we played in that match. Anna Hasselborg.
At 13.05 Swedish time on Thursday, Lake Edin will play in the semifinals against Canada, with the Swedish girls watching the match on site.
Supports Swedish comrades
– Fucking now, we’ll cheer guys on first, sit back and enjoy their fantastic half, I trust them so much. Then slow down, sleep, rest, recharge and do a little exercise. This is how we go about it, says Anna Hasselborg.
The Hasselborg team will play in the semi-finals of Group Three against Great Britain simultaneously on Friday.
In the second semifinal, one meets Switzerland and four Japan, who were able to lead the big country Canada during their emotional scenes.
