Ljungberg was captain of the Swedish national team until he announced his international retirement after UEFA Euro 2008. On 12 September 1984, the Ljungbergs had another son, Karl Oskar Filip. Eriksson’s impression of the youngster was that he was remarkably talented for his age and that he was considerate of other players noting that Ljungberg would pass the ball to his friends so that they would have a chance to score.
