Sweden outplayed his side 0-3 in the league match but head coach Thomas Dennerby on Wednesday said that India will push for a win in the summit clash of U-17 women's international football tournament here on Thursday.
"We will go for the win against Sweden. No matter who we play, we always strive to win, not for a draw or to lose by just one or two goals. We can change tactics for different games and that is to win and not to let in lesser goals. We are going for it," Dennerby said at the pre-match press conference.
India sealed their spot in the final with a 1-0 win against Thailand on Tuesday, which Dennerby termed as "crucial."
The former Sweden and Nigeria head coach also reserved a special word for goalkeeper Manju Ganjhu, saying, "Our keeper was very good and made crucial saves. We were looking to attack towards the end of the match and Thailand could have scored on the break."
