Lars Lagerbäck, the manager of the Sweden national football team, was in relatively high spirits, even though Sweden was trailing behind in the match.
"It's time to counter-attack, lads!" Lagerbäck clapped his hands and said with a raised voice.
The Sweden players all lifted their heads to look at him.
"We gave them too many chances in the first half. We cannot continue to do that in the second half. We have an advantage over them in terms of height. Why aren't we making use of it during aerial duels? We should make full use of every corner that we are given. I want all of you to be even more proactive in the second half. You all also need to be more aggressive in the midfield!" He clenched his fist and pounded it once against the wall.
