chances of reaching Euro 2016 despite their loss to
Sweden.
Denmark striker Nicklas Bendtner is pleased his team struck
late to remain in their Euro 2016 qualifying play-off against
Sweden.
An Emil Forsberg goal and Zlatan Ibrahimovic penalty either side
of half-time at the Friends Arena in Solna put the hosts in
control on Saturday.
But Nicolai Jorgensen got on the scoresheet with 10 minutes
remaining to see Denmark trail 2-1 heading into Tuesday's
second leg.
Bendtner, who played a full game, was pleased the visitors left
with an away goal.
"We talked at half-time that we had to go out and do better for
the second half," he was quoted as saying by Fyens.
"So it is obviously negative, they got a penalty, but the positive
is that we scored so we were in the game."
Bendtner urged his team to maintain possession better in
Copenhagen, saying they looked dangerous at times in the first
leg.
"In the periods where we played ball, we did well," he said.
"But we did not do it enough."
