Full game de Vries as Värnamo (1st) draw 1-1 with Örgryte (9th). Joel Stevens subbed on at 84 mins (score 1-1). Formation in Flashscore actually had de Vries playing as a LB.
Bit of a missed opportunity for Värnamo (40 pts), as a win would have created a bit of a gap on Trelleborg (2nd, 37 pts) & Helsingborg (3rd, 36 pts with a game in hand). Big game this weekend as Värnamo travel to Trelleborg. 9 games to go. Top 2 teams automatically promoted, 3rd place into Playoffs.
Looks like Värnamo may have never played in the Swedish top flight (Allsvenskan). Or if they have it was a long time ago, so I imagine a few nerves around the team as they try achieve back to back promotions.
de Vries must be some chance of making the AWs squad for October friendlies. Maybe even as a LB/RB option. Suspect both MLS guys M Boxall & Tuiloma, plus Reid will be unavailable. If so de Vries, N Boxall, Stanger & Kyle Adams will all be in the frame. Smith, Pijnaker & Stensness all being CB shoe ins.
