Maria Thorisdottir did not check her mobile phone for more than 24 hours after the nightmare match – news Sport – Sports news, results and broadcast schedule

The criticism has hailed in both newspapers and social media after the big loss against England. But Thorisdottir does not accept that criticism. – I did not open the phone until last night and have deleted all of social media and do not access any media at all. It has been wonderful, says Thorisdottir to news. She is far from the only one who has completely disconnected from the outside world. Several of the players on the national team use the same tactics. CONSCIOUS CHOICE: Caroline Graham Hansen has deliberately put away news and social media during the championship.

Then it does not affect you either, and it is perfectly fine to live with it. It is a conscious choice throughout the championship, said Caroline Graham Hansen the day after the brak loss which led to massive criticism. – We have talked about it It is no coincidence that the national team players do not follow what is written about them. This is planned. LEAVE YOUR MOBILE: Guro Reiten does not check online newspapers or comment fields on social media. Photo: VEGARD GRØTT / BILDBYRÅN – We have talked about it beforehand. We who have been here before have been in some storms before. That everyone has an opinion about it can sometimes be positive when things are going well, but it is not always as pleasant to read about how bad you are, says Reiten. – Is it difficult not to keep up? – No, it’s very easy. You just do not go into the phone. I wish I did it a little earlier because I think I’m a little too much on the phone as usual, says the Chelsea player and laughs. The Olympic team is with the national team during their stay in England. Among other things, they offer psychological help: They also support the choice to stop reading online newspapers and social media. PRESENT: Marit Breivik is in place and follows up the national team.

Then our brain does not have room for so much else. It is a good experience that many of us have with us through many championships, says Marit Breivik, former national team manager for the handball girls and now summer sports manager in Olympiatoppen to news. Talked to his father When Thorisdottir found the phone again, it was Marit Breivik’s heir as national team manager for the Norwegian handball girls, Thorir Hergeirsson, she talked to. The father has been in similar situations before. – It’s always nice to have a little pep talk with him where you get to air a little and share thoughts. It was good to talk to him yesterday, says the Manchester United stopper. CALLED THE FATHER: When Maria Thorisdottir found the phone again, she called the father. Photo: VEGARD GRØTT / BILDBYRÅN She made the penalty kick that led to 1-0 to England, and she lost the ball in a dangerous position when the host nation increased to 3-0. Now the disappointment over his own performance and the result is gone. – What if I had not been looking forward? It would have been absolutely awful !, she says and adds: – I think everyone is very ready to show that we can do so much better. I look forward to hopefully getting a much better feeling.
