Johansson: The Team Spirit Was Fantastic

Leicester City Development Squad goalkeeper Viktor Johansson speaks to LCFC TV after a 3-0 win at Swansea City.

“The team spirit is important for us, everyone trusts each other and their abilities to do what they can do best so yeah I think it’s a very good team spirit.

“You have to expect that it’s going to be tight at the top of the table, we can just do what we can do and hope that Everton slip up along the way, so we just have to keep on going.”

Johansson, 20, concluded by taking a moment to pay tribute to his defensive colleagues who have defended so valiantly over recent weeks for the Club’s Under-23s.
