Sports always tell stories that very few have the ability to create, and one of these stories, transformed into a modern fairy tale, was told by Mjalbi's footballers, who on Monday completed an extraordinary and wonderful journey in the Swedish championship by winning the championship title.
A campaign that will never be forgotten and has already entered football history given that the new masters of football in the Scandinavian country are a team from a town with only 1400 inhabitants. And one of the biggest protagonists of this team that has also been baptized as the 'Swedish Leicester' is precisely the coach Anders Torshtenson, whose story is also incredible given that he has been fighting a much stronger battle outside the playing fields for months.
In fact, in August 2024, Torstenson learned terrible news; he was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. ' From that moment on, I feel even stronger because I understood the importance of life, the importance of every day here,' says the 59-year-old coach. 'Today I don't feel any different than the days when I didn't know about the disease. In a way, I leave the diagnosis in the hospital. I have accepted it and it's not something that deeply affects me .'
But on the other hand, the cancer diagnosis has taught Torshtenson something.
" I don't take anything for granted and I don't put things off until tomorrow," says Torstenson. "That's one of the reasons we won. Everyone asks about our secret, but there's none. There are about 500 things that we work on every day with extraordinary care and we haven't compromised on anything ."
