Arsenal midfielder Freddie Ljungberg is ready to play through the pain barrier in order to represent Sweden at the World Cup finals.
The 29-year-old has been struggling with a foot injury for the past few weeks.
"I am not worried at all. I have played with this injury for one-and-a-half months," said Ljungberg.
"It's hurting, but it has been an important end to the season and the World Cup is coming.
"It swells all the time. I need four weeks' rest but there is no time for that."
