Sweden make two changes
Kyiv, Jun 19 (bdnews24.com/Reuters) – Midfielder Emir Bajrami has been included in Sweden’s starting lineup against France for their final Group D game in place of the ill Rasmus Elm at Euro 2012 on Tuesday.
Coach Erik Hamren made two changes from the team who lost 3-2 against England and are already eliminated from the tournament, with Ola Toivonen replacing the injured Johan Elmander up front.
Hamren said on Monday that Elm was ill and a decision on his participation would be made on Tuesday, while he had already announced that Elmander would be rested so he could continue his recovery from a broken foot.
In the group’s other game, England take on co-hosts Ukraine in Donetsk, which also kicks off at 1845 GMT.
