The good news: we won against Peru. The bad news: Germany destroyed Bosnia and received 11 points for their victory. This means they surpassed us and we are 17th now -.- And if I look at our and their schedule... they will moce further forward.
The two main issues for this season are: staying in the Top 18 of Europe and finishing the first round of the consolidation cup as one of the first 32 teams.

About the game from last night. We had three main scorer with Martinsson, Tunggard and Sandbom. The rest of the team was a supporting package. Unfortunately nothing more, luckily nothing less. Peru has some strong bigs and it was good, that I countered it with three bigs from our side. It was a hard fight and I expected some more of these games this season. So hopefully the players stay healthy and the game shape will be as high as possible. One player can change the cours of the game and decide betwenn victory and defeat.

We had a high win last night and we gained 11,5 points. With this we are 15th now! And we are only 14 points behind Switzerland, who is the nearest team from group 2.
That's for the good news. Now for the bad ones.
Our next four games are against teams which are some places in front of us or behind us. Every game will be extremly difficult to win and we need at least two wins out of these four games for a possibility to promote to the next round.
I really hope that we can maintain our high game shape and raise it even higher (some players are pretty low).

The game against South Korea:
Sandbom played a perfect game! His current performance is outstanding. Really great work from his manager.
Yesterday he had some help from Sommarborg and Tjädermo. Both were en pair with him. Our guards and forwards had a weaker day, but compaired to the first three guys, every guard would look pale ;)

113:100 against Iran. We are still on track

Great work as usual, amazed seeing the progress

On monday we played and won against Iran. It was the first time Sweden had to play against this country.
Looking at the WR list we gained nothing. No points, no higher WR and no higher rank in Europe. But still, this was an important win because this season is really something. The teams are more balanced and it will be hard to reach the KO round with two loses. During the last seasons a 5:3 with a high difference was enough... I fear that this season is different.

The game against Iran:
Our two guards had a monster game. They scored and rebounded and defended and and and... I guess that this game went so well because of the high game shape of the team. Four starters had GS 9, nine players of the whole roster had GS 9. If the GS stays at this level and the other teams have some problems, there could be some more surprissing results.

Keep going!

My nerves!
We won the game at the charity stripe. 8 missed free throws, but luckily this was enough today.

Most points, most rebounds, most blocks.
