When goalkeeper Andreas Palicka made it 20-14 from his own goal area, it boiled in Scandinavium: "Palicka, Palicka!"
it echoed in the old hockey temple in Gothenburg when Sweden finally got hold of Brazil and won the WC premiere.
Palicka was the best on the pitch and roared out his joy, along with the others, after the victory was complete.
- Every damn goal is important, roared Jim Gottfridsson in the timeout with six minutes left when it was 22-17.
It otherwise took time to get a proper grip on the match, which on paper had Sweden as a big, big favorite.
The reality was something completely different.
Brazil held firm and it was only when it was 17-14 that the lead began to stretch.
In this sequence, Sweden scored five straight goals and went 21-14 and established the victory.
The defense and goalkeeping play founded the victory.
