Sweden coach Erik Hamren named his 23-man squad for the 2016 European Championship.

SOUNDBITE: (English) Erik Hamren, Sweden coach:

"We need to be, really good as a unit, as a team, and we need our only world-class player (Zlatan Ibrahimovic) to be at his best. So the challenge is to be one hundred per cent for three games. I think we have a good mix with a, world-class player taking big responsibility for the team, as Zlatan is doing as a captain and as a player. But also the team taking a huge responsibility for the world-class player, and that mixture, has been successful and we need that mixture to work in the summer one hundred per cent if we're going to have a chance to go further from the group because, (realistically) we have the lowest ranking in the group and (realistically), yeah, then we shouldn't got further. But I believe it's possible and if the team believe that and we're doing this in one hundred per cent, yes, we can do it."
