After a weak first half against Egypt, Sweden came up to level in the second.
After a quarter, they had picked up the four-goal deficit at the break and after even final minutes, it was finally a Swedish victory with 24-23.
- An enormous work effort in the central defense with extra plus to Jonathan Carlsbogård and Max Darj who make a heroic effort, says SVT Sports national team expert Magnus Grahn who also pays tribute to Linus Persson.
"Linus Persson created a huge pressure from his right-wing position and was extremely brave and dared to take the gaps that were given. He was the one who showed the way in others.
With the victory, Sweden takes a maximum of four points to the intermediate round.
- Also nice to see the enormous morale.
Gives faith in the future for both the championship and also the longer term
