Defender Jonas Olsson is aiming to join his team-mates Gareth McAuley, Jonny Evans and Chris Brunt at France 2016.

The latter trio helped Northern Ireland cement their place in a major championships for the first time since Mexico in 1986.

Olsson was in the Swedish squad that went to Euro 2012 in Poland and Ukraine and is delighted for his team-mates.

But he has had to make do with watching his countrymen over recent games, as he remains sidelined with a groin injury.

Sweden secured a guaranteed play-off position after beating Lichtenstein 2-0, but will hope to qualify automatically with a win against Moldova tonight.
