Derby County’s Jacob Zetterstrom believes the team can bounce back after a tough loss to Sunderland, urging his teammates to keep pushing forward.
This defeat marked their fifth in a row, leaving them just above the relegation zone. They’re currently in 20th place, only one point away from the bottom three. With Portsmouth and Plymouth Argyle playing soon, they could drop even lower.
Despite missing key players, there were some bright spots. Newcomer Lars-Jorgen Salvesen had a promising debut and almost scored twice. The second half showed some real potential, even if they couldn’t find the equalizer.
Zetterstrom spoke to RamsTV after the match. He emphasized that they have 18 games left and need to approach each one with the same energy as the second half against Sunderland. He’s confident they can play well as a team if they put in the effort.
Looking ahead, Derby faces Cardiff City next. Both teams are struggling, and they need to replicate that second-half performance for the full 90 minutes. It’s a crucial match for the Rams.
