MADRID. The meeting with Real Madrid at the magnificent Santiago Bernabeu becomes Åge Hareides last game with the team.
If not, MFF blaring and take points.
– Can we handle it and take us to the Europa League should I come and cheer on the team, then I imagine in the heel behind the goal, says 62-year-old.
Åge Hareide will meet the press at the Santiago Bernabéu, with a relaxed smile. Beside him sits Anton Tinnerholm, full-back who went from not being entirely regular in Atvidaberg to be thrown straight into a Euro qualifier with Hareide and MFF – and now considered the MFF successor who played the most since.
Tinnerholm get some questions at the press conference – but all is about Hareide. It is the Norwegian’s show.
His last club he led to two straight Champions League finals, and he has now resigned from.
– It is clear that there is dual feelings. I try to turn away a lot and think that it is a regular game, it’s my job. But I know that it’s been an amazing journey, where we experienced a lot.
“Would have been a great ending”
To say the least.
With Åge Hareide has Malmo FF for two consecutive years succeeded in doing what no other Swedish teams succeeded in many many years – made it to the group stage of the Champions League. Hareide also led the team to its second straight national championship in 2014.
And still a small chance that the MFF will continue their adventure in Europe. Blaring man against Real Madrid and take more points than Shakhtar Donetsk, while the stamina against Zlatan Ibrahimovic and his PSG case is clear, MFF will play the Europa League.
– There’s always a chance. Can we do that, I’ll come and cheer on the team. Then I imagine in the heel behind the goal. It had been an ultimate conclusion if we did it and that’s what we go for, said Hareide.
“Incredibly high of requirements”
Anton Tinnerholm salute their outgoing coach:
– He’s meant a lot to me. I came from Atvidaberg and thrown directly into a Euro qualifier, and knew that no Swedish team made it to the Champions League at the Lord lot of years. But Åge built up a faith for me and for the whole team. Now it feels like you’re on a new platform than before they arrived, he said.
– Then he has an incredibly high demands picture of our players, I have never seen a coach who has been so high requirement. You can yourself feel that you are reasonably satisfied with the match, but there are always things to correct. Åge get us to never sit down and be satisfied.
FOOTNOTE: The match between Real Madrid and Malmö FF played on Tuesday 20.45.
