Coach Rannula acknowledges the challenges posed by the Swedish team but remains optimistic about the potential of his players.

These games could be pivotal for the team's growth and confidence moving forward in their international competitions, making the upcoming encounters not just matches, but critical tests for the cohesion and capabilities of the team.
