Hammarby won 3-0 against Häcken at home in Allsvenskan. Paulos Abraham scored one of the goals, but was far from satisfied with the team's offense. - It's maybe a luxury problem to win 3-0 against Häcken and not be satisfied with the offense, said Abraham. But I think we have a lot more to give there. We don't create as much as we usually do at home. Above all, he is looking for a more direct game when Hammarby wins the ball. - Many teams want to be tight and low against us and then it can be hard to get through. I think we need to take the chance directly when they lose the ball more often. Abraham had himself struggled to find as many scoring opportunities as in several of the previous matches. - I don't know if it was the ball tempo or what it was, but it felt like we weren't at our best offensively today. At the same time, he is aware of the contrast. Hammarby won despite all with three goals. - I won't take it too hard. But it can be a lot better. Abraham has played continuously in the season and has now become an important part of the team. - I've played a lot and I'm very glad about it. I feel like I've done well for the team too. Overall, I think I've done very well and earned the right to play. With the changes in the squad comes also a greater responsibility. Against Häcken, Abraham, born in 2002, was Hammarby's oldest outfield player. - We talked about it before the match. It feels like that only happens in Hammarby. He feels himself that it's time to step up even more. - I want to take more responsibility in the team. Today I was the oldest outfield player in Hammarby, so I think it's time for me to take a little more responsibility. Since Henrik Rydström took over, the goals have rolled in for Abraham. He has scored in almost all Allsvenskan matches under the new coach - despite neither he himself nor Rydström being fully satisfied with the efficiency. - Rydström has not been fully satisfied with my efficiency, and I haven't either. Yet I've scored in almost every match. That says a lot about what he has done with the team. Abraham experiences above all that Hammarby more often manages to play their way into scoring opportunities. - It feels like I've come to chances all the time. He has given the team a good boost, so I give more credit to the team and the coach. The demands on Abraham come simultaneously at least as much from himself. - I've always been a hard critic of myself. I don't think there's anyone who's harder on me than I am. Next match for Hammarby is away against Halmstad on August 16. Andreas Linde, Ben Engdahl, Filip Ohman and Julius Lindberg are currently sidelined.
