There was great Swedish joy after the final places.
- It's super fun that two Swedes moved on.
That means a lot, says Roos, who admits that it was nervous to wait to see if it would be enough for the final.
When the final places were ready, they jumped up to each other for a hug party.
Axelina Johansson improved her personal record to 18.57, which was an increase of 18 centimeters.
Her second best shot was at 18.50, which was significant.
She took the last final place after a better second shot than the German Katharina Maisch who also had 18.57 but only 17.84 as a second shot.
"Now I'm going to call my mother"
- I am super happy and felt that I could push far.
Now I will call my mother, says Johansson who made his two best shocks in life.
Roos bumped steadily and 18.72 took her to the final.
- We have a post and it is fantastic that we have two Swedes in the final.
I hope you at home on the couch understand how good it is to be among the twelve best shot putter in the world, says SVT Sports expert Christian Olsson.
They beat out in the final after taking the last two final places as eleven and twelve.
Lijiiao Gong, China, was the best in the qualifiers with 19.51.
