After the game, Yorkez pointed out in an interview with Fotbollskanalen that tactics are one of the reasons why the team lost to Kosovo: "Tactics are certainly a factor, but I think the most important thing is the performance of our players on the court. We need to do better in personal technology and team cooperation. When other aspects are not performed well, tactics alone are not enough. We absolutely trust Thomason."
In the second round of the qualifiers in the European Division Group B, Sweden lost to Kosovo 0-2 away.
