It was a 3-0 loss at home to Lech Poznan on Wednesday for Hammarby. Thus, the team is eliminated from the Europa League qualifiers.
An expulsion of team captain Jeppe Andersen (two yellow cards) after just over an hour cost Bajen a lot and overall, the Polish team created advantages by strengthening themselves in duels, yelling loudly at innings and passing time when they had the advantage.
They played cynically.
Do you have something to learn there, Stefan Billborn?
– Yes, I think so, says Hammarby’s coach.
– Our first three yellow cards are perhaps a product of the fact that you have to be a little cooler. Although the latter is not a yellow card in my book. Not even a free kick. But I don’t always think that it is the case that you have to increase the intensity in the feet, but it is probably in the head where you have to increase the intensity. You have to be on all the time and be there all the time. Because they are such small things that they wear. So you may not have as many opportunities as you usually have, and so it is important to take advantage of those opportunities. We did not.
When Billborn has the opportunity to reflect on the lessons Hammarby needs to learn after this classification, he says:
– I think maybe it’s a bit of what we’ve been talking about, that maybe you have to be a little more cynical and a little more real. To play with slightly larger margins. The opponent does not need as many opportunities to use things to his advantage. I think it is something we can assume.
– Lech took advantage of what was offered, stopped and created free throws to stop.
Alexander Kacaniklic also thinks that Poznan was good to pass the time.
– It belongs to the game and you saw they were good at it. They were 1-0 and they took advantage of the time even more. It threw us off balance a bit. They took advantage of it and it turned out well. They did it smartly, says the stranger.
