<div class="emp-description" id="meta-information">
<p> Sweden coach Erik Hamren says he did not call his players &quot;cowards&quot; after their 2-1 defeat by Ukraine at Euro 2012.
</p>
<p> Hamren insisted his words were misinterpreted, but said Sweden were &quot;cautious&quot; and &quot;a little nervous&quot; in their opening game.
</p>
<p> Sweden face England on Friday in Kiev, and Hamren believes his team&#039;s win against the Netherlands in the qualifying stage will be an experience they can draw on against Roy Hodgson&#039;s side.
