TOKYO. The Swedish football audience got to enjoy the Olympic premiere.
Among other things, a perfectly functioning right edge with Sofia Jakobsson and Hanna Glas.
Even the Olympics’ best right wing?
– Yes, you can still say that. I think so, says Hanna Glas herself.
In the 3-0 victory against the USA, it was clear that Sweden used their right wing in the offensive extra much.
You can understand why with the result in hand.
The collaboration between right-back Hanna Glas and the right-hander Sofia Jakobsson rendered in both one and two assists.
– It’s great fun to play with her. She runs enormously, releases the ball very well and we found a good collaboration. He is a fantastically good player, says Hanna Glas when the Jakobsson collaboration comes up.
– We run a lot. We are good at opening spaces for each other and using each other’s strengths.
Come on! It will be great fun! ”
It is not just the national team audience that can enjoy a Swedish right wing in unison next season.
How fun will it be to play with Sofia Jakobsson also in the club team?
– Great fun. We have made a great signing. For several years in a row, she has shown her high level and she will be a new dimension for us in Bayern, says Glas that Sofia Jakobsson is ready for Bayern Munich after the move from Real Madrid.
How involved were you in the transition? Did you say anything before?
– We talked a bit before and she wanted to hear how it was. I thought it was a good time for her to come so I said “Come on! It’s going to be great fun! The right edge! ”. I’m really looking forward to continuing to play with her there.
Does Sweden have the best right wing in the Olympics?
– Yes, you can still say that. I think so.
Jakobsson: “Safe to have Hanna”
Sofia Jakobsson is also happy that she will be a teammate with Hanna Glas in Bavaria.
Talked to her before the move?
– I have done that. She has said good things and it feels safe to have Hanna there.
Before, it was you and “Kosse” who were the Madrid duo – have you been forced to “change friends” now?
– Haha, not really. Am a good friend of both. But of course it gets a little weird when I can still happen to say “we” when it comes to Real. But it will be that I simply have to change that language.
On the pitch, however, Jakobsson is already obviously a “we” with his new German teammate.
– It feels great. It feels like it works well with many in the national team. We use our strengths very well.

“I hope I can score more goals”
Even if it “only” was an assist for the Bayern duo in the premiere against the USA, they can also score goals.
Hanna Glas can also make really nice ones, like in the Champions League against Chelsea this spring.
– I hope I can score more goals in any case. Since that goal, I do not know if I will redo, says Sofia Jakobsson.
Hanna Glas buys Jakobsson’s plan:
– It’s still right think. She’s a striker and I’m a defender. Although I hope I can also break my goal record next season.
You can stand for the good looking so big she for the crowd?
– So it may be. It sounds good.
