Sweden draws Japan in first 2007 friendly

Sweden - Japan 2 - 2 (2-1)
Sweden: Caroline Jönsson - Frida Östberg, Hanna Marklund, Karolina Westberg (61 Stina Segerström), Sara Thunebro - Maria Karlsson (74 Frida Nordin), Caroline Seger (71 Salina Olsson), Therese Sjögran (61 Nilla Fischer), Josefine Öqvist - Victoria Svensson (71 Therese Lundin), Lotta Schelin (46 Maria Aronsson).
Goals: 1-0 Lotta Schelin (23), 1-1 Miyama (25), 2-1 Therese Sjögran (34 PK), 2-2 Arakawa (79)
Considering that the Swedish team arrived at Cyprus only the day before the Monday match, directly from the strict preseason training regiment at home, coach Dennerby deemed the performance satisfying against a Japan that is gearing up for their deciding World Cup qualifiers against Mexico next month.
Sweden took the lead as Lotta Schelin scored from a clever Sjögran pass but Japan could almost immideately equalize. Therese Sjögran then gave Sweden the lead again on a penalty kick after a Japanese defender handballed. Towards the end Japan took over the match and the 79th minute equalizer wasn't unexpected. "We didn't manage to keep the play up at the end of the match and lost a few simple balls", comments Thomas Dennerby, who still was satisfied with the performance over the full 90 minutes, "considering it is very early on the season". The numerous substitutions in the second half also made the Swedish game a bit more disorganised, but then substitutions is an essential part of these kind of matches.
Dennerby coped with the retirement of midfielders Moström, Sjöström and Fagerström by starting with an expected Seger/Sjögran centre with Linköping's speedy Maria Karlsson and Josefine Öqvist on the wings. Lotta Schelin took rehabbing Hanna Ljungberg's spot in the attack, but had to step down already at the halftime recess with groin pains. She said it was mostly precaution and she should be all right for the Scotland match later this week.
Victoria Svensson has inherited Malin Moström's captain's armband and was replaced in that part by Hanna Marklund when she was substituted late in the second half.
