Swedish defender Nathalie Björn, 28, is likely to miss upcoming World Cup qualifiers after reinjuring herself. She was injured after only two minutes on the pitch during the League Cup final between Chelsea and Manchester United. Chelsea head coach Sonia Bompastor said the situation does not look good and is very sad for Björn.
For the Swedish national team, which has an inexperienced backline, this is a blow ahead of qualifiers against Serbia and Denmark in April. SVT expert Hanna Marklund said Björn is the player who should hold the defense together, and without her, Sweden could be shakier.
