Team Edin to World Cup final: "We are better than ever"

The Swedish lead was 3-1 when Niklas Edin, with the last stone of the fifth round, got to a perfect stone.

The Swedish stone hit the Italian so hard that it in turn hit the other Italian stone that was in the nest.

Thus, Sweden conceded four points and extended its lead in the semifinals to 7-1.

- Oh oh oh, what masterpieces, said SVT's expert Eva Lund in the broadcast.

Niklas Edin admits that the fifth round was decisive in the match.

- I am really happy that we manage to take the chance and take four points.

Had Italy stolen points there, it could have been a completely different match, says Edin after the match.

Meets Canada or USA in the final

Despite the Swedish sharpness swaying slightly in the final rounds, Italian team Joel Retornaz could never recover.

In the ninth round, the Italians chose to give up and Sweden won the semifinal 8-4.

- This means a lot, especially this season with the Olympic gold.

We feel better than ever, says Edin.

Eva Lund was impressed after the match.

- Again a fantastic achievement when it means the most, says the SVT expert.

In the final, Canada, who beat the United States in the semifinals, is waiting.
