The last time Sweden won an international title was in 2005. At that time, they won European Championship gold in Malmö.

Today you have a chance to take the next title - in Malmö in particular.

But two of the starting players, were not allowed to start in the big match.

Quarterback William James and defensive back Sebastian Gauthier partyed in Copenhagen, the night before the match.

- They have broken the rules of the law.

The intention is to have 45 players who can play, and they will play today, says national team captain BD Kennedy to SVT Sport.

How big a disturbance has it been?

- It's fine.

We're here to play American football.

And we will do that today.
