Peter Gerhardsson (born August 22, 1959 ) is a former Swedish football player . The striker moved to the coaching bench after his active career. Since September 2017 he has been coaching the Swedish national football team .
Career
Playing career in first and second league
Gerhardsson began playing football at Upsala IF as a child , where he then went through the individual age groups of the youth department and, as a teenager, played in the lower-class men's team. Before the second division season in 1978, he moved to the Stockholm club Hammarby IF . Initially still mainly active in the youth team, he came in 1978 to a use in the first team, which rose to the Allsvenskan at the end of the season . Under the newly signed coach Bengt Gustavsson , he came back only once in the first division season in 1979 , before he established himself in the attack of the club in the following seasons alongside Billy Ohlsson , Jonnie Efraimsson and Mats Werner, who was temporarily injured .
Before the 1982 season , Bengt Persson took over the coaching position at Hammarby IF and led the team around Sten-Ove Ramberg , Mats Wahlberg , Thomas Dennerby and Michael Andersson as second in the regular season behind IFK Göteborg in the championship finals. There Gerhardsson and Efraimsson distinguished themselves as regular goal scorers, so that the final against the league leaders from Gothenburg was reached. In the first leg he scored the decisive goal for the 2-1 away win at Ullevi with his fourth goal in the 88th minute of the game , in the second leg, however, two goals by Dan Corneliusson and one goal by Tord Holmgren ensured a 3-0 half-time lead for Gothenburg, which, despite the honor hit by Ulf Eriksson thus won the title.
In the following season, Gerhardsson also showed his scoring danger during regular time and placed fourth on the goalscorer list with ten goals this season, behind top scorer Thomas Ahlström and the tied Mats Jingblad and Sören Börjesson . In the summer of the year he was with the club in the final of the national cup , which was lost to the reigning champions IFK Göteborg. This meant that the team was entitled to participate in the European Cup Winners' Cup 1983/84 . After she had prevailed against the Albanian representative KS 17. Nëntori Tirana , she failed in the second round after extra time in the second leg at the Finnish cup winner Valkeakosken Haka .
After Gerhardsson had failed with the team in the 1984 season only in the semi-finals of the championship finals, Persson left the club after the end of the season. Under his successors Björn Bolling , Lars Wass and Hans Backe , the team was regularly in the front midfield between 1985 and 1987, but missed the renewed entry into the championship finals. After he had to cut short due to injury, he was again the club's best internal goalscorer in the 1986 season before Thomas Lundin overtook him.
In early 1988 Gerhardsson moved to Vasalunds IF in the second division. After he had missed promotion in his first season with the club as third in the table of the northern season behind Örebro SK and IFK Eskilstuna , it came in the second division season in 1989 to a duel with his former club Hammarby IF. Only on the last match day did the competitor outstrip his current club when they scored a 6-0 win over Karlstad BK with a goal in stoppage time , so that with the same number of points and the same goal difference, the number of goals scored as a criterion decided that Hammarby IF returned to the first division. After another runner-up behind GIF Sundsvall - the league leaders had a clear twelve point lead - Gerhardsson moved to the second division Enköpings SK . After two seasons, he ended his active career following the 1992 season, which the club had ended on a relegation zone.
Time as a trainer
Immediately after his active career, Gerhardsson switched to the coaching bench and took over the coaching position at his hometown club Upsala IF , which he was in charge of until 1995. He then took over the third division club BKV Norrtälje , but with whom he missed relegation. His next stop was also in Uppland . From 1997 he was in charge of the women's team of the Bälinge IF , which was part of the Damallsvenskan and placed under his leadership among the top three teams in the league and only failed in the 1998 season in the semi-finals at the eventual champions Älvsjö AIK .
After Gerhardsson influenced the fortunes of the second division between 2000 and 2002 as the assistant coach of his last game station, Enköpings SK, he then moved to Svenska Fotbollförbundet as a junior national coach . In 2005 Helsingborgs IF brought him to the Allsvenskan as Peter Swärdh's assistant coach . Even after his dismissal in the course of the following season he remained with the coaching staff until the end of 2008 under the interim solution of Hans Eklund and his successors Stuart Baxter and Bo Nilsson .
In November 2008, the Gothenburg club BK Häcken announced the commitment of Gerhardssons as the new coach of the club that had been promoted to the Allsvenskan. He led the team around Jonas Henriksson , Mathias Ranégie , Tom Söderberg and Christoffer Källqvist in his first season as the main coach in the Swedish elite series to fifth place in the table and thus missed a European Cup place by only two points. Thereupon, in particular, his former gaming station Hammarby IF - the club was relegated to the Superettan as bottom of the table - interested in a commitment, but BK Häcken announced that the contract, which expired in 2010, would be extended by three years.
