“It’s a very inspiring environment to be in. It’s a very good level that I get to be in daily and I’m inspired by the people I train and play with. I would say that I feel like I’m in an environment where you have all the conditions.
I really want to keep taking steps all the time so that really motivates me. ” Currently on international duty with Sweden, Blackstenius scored a 50th-minute winner to help her side beat Serbia 1-0. Sweden are currently second in their group, one point behind Denmark
