Caroline Seger, just like Therese Sjögran and the German Birgit Prinz, had been listed for 214 international matches before the match against Australia.
Yesterday's Olympic genre rep, which ended 0-0, became her 215th international match for Sweden, which means that she now holds both the Swedish and European record for most international matches.
- It feels completely okay.
Great fun for Seger that she breaks the record.
I'm just happy for her sake, says Therese Sjögran to SVT Sport.
"A lot of feelings"
Victory was celebrated in connection with the match and Sjögran himself was present and experienced it.
- It was a lot of emotions.
To see her be so moved and to see her family and everything, it is clear that you had to fight a little to hold back the tears.
It was fun to be here when she broke the record.
What does Caroline Seger mean to you?
- She means a lot to me, both as a friend and a player in my team.
She is very important in many ways.
That she just breaks the record just feels good.
Means a lot for the national team
Sjögran is sports director at FC Rosengård, where Seger plays every day.
- She's the best.
She has been with us for a long time and has meant a lot to the national team and to FC Rosengård.
She is a leader who is easy to follow, she makes one follow unconsciously and leads with a twinkle in the eye.
Why is she so good?
- The passion for football, that she is still constantly getting better even though she is 36 years old.
She still wants to be the best and continue to develop.
I think that means she can still keep up at this level.
USA's Kristine Lilly has the global record with 354 international matches.
