How to mat-button-toggle by default selected in angular

Hope this will help someone.

public selectedVal: string;
constructor() { }

ngOnInit(){
  this.selectedVal ='option1';
} 

public onValChange(val: string) {
  this.selectedVal = val;
}

 <mat-button-toggle-group #group="matButtonToggleGroup" [value]="selectedVal" (change)="onValChange(group.value)" >
  <mat-button-toggle value="option1">
    Option 1
  </mat-button-toggle>
  <mat-button-toggle value="option2">
    Option 2
  </mat-button-toggle>
</mat-button-toggle-group>

@Uliana Pavelko's answer is awesome. But what would be for multiple selected button group?

Bellow is the example. Don't forget to pass values as string in

public selectedVal: string;
constructor() { }

ngOnInit(){
  this.selectedVal =['2','6'];
}

public onValChange(val: string) {
  this.selectedVal = val;
}

<mat-button-toggle-group #group="matButtonToggleGroup" [value]="selectedVal" (change)="onValChange(group.value)" >
<mat-button-toggle value="option1">
    Option 1
</mat-button-toggle>
<mat-button-toggle value="option2">
    Option 2
</mat-button-toggle>
</mat-button-toggle-group> 

I fixed it. Simply add the value attribute to the mat-button-toggle-group tag.

<mat-button-toggle-group #group="matButtonToggleGroup" value="All">
<mat-button-toggle value="Heritage">
    <span>Heritage</span>
</mat-button-toggle>
<mat-button-toggle value="Nature">
    <span>Nature</span>
</mat-button-toggle>
<mat-button-toggle value="People">
    <span>People</span>
</mat-button-toggle>
<mat-button-toggle value="All">
    <span>All</span>
</mat-button-toggle>
