FIFA WC: 'No Disgrace In Losing To France', Says Coach Potter After Sweden's Exit
FIFA World Cup: Head coach Graham Potter reflected on Sweden's defeat against world No. 2 France in the FIFA World Cup 2026 knockouts and said that he feels proud of his team's campaign, admitting there is no disgrace in losing to a team like France.
Sweden came into the game with a 4-4-2 formation in the round of 32 against France and started confidently with aggressive defensive play, several ball wins and some promising attacks. But Mbappe struck twice as Les Bleus continued their perfect start, sweeping aside Sweden to book their place in the Round of 16.
"I have no complaints to the players whatsoever," Potter said in the post-match press conference. "I don't think it's a disgrace to lose to France. They were the better team and they've got some high-level players. For us, it's about using this as a foundation to go forward and to be proud of what we've done so far."
