It was at the end of the second period that Malmö player Ellen Rasmussen got stuck in the floor. Forward laughed badly but after a while she was able to link off the pitch with a foot injury. Rasmussen never came back in the match and at the bench she had her foot in high position.

- She has had a brilliant season and it would be a very tough break if she goes away, says expert Ann-Sofie Sundholm in Channel 9.

Crushed the Slovak

The match itself was never a snack. Sweden won by as much as 23-1 in the World Cup.

The next match for Sweden is on Monday when the Czech Republic faces the opposition.

The quarterfinals start on Friday.
