Sweden is playing the World Cup final for the second time in a row. That is clear after winning the first three group stage matches without conceding a single goal.
The 5-0 against the U.S. in the opener and 6-0 against Finland on Thursday was followed up with another 5-0 win against the U.S. on Friday morning.
- The U.S. is doing well. They defend well and have a very good goalkeeper so we get caught a lot of times. It is still strong of us to win 5-0, we can of course score more goals but it is nice that we keep a clean sheet, says defender Victoria Olsson in Bandypuls broadcast.
It is not finished today for Sweden, despite the advancement. Later this afternoon, a new, this time meaningless, meeting with Finland awaits.
"Now we're going to sleep a little in the room and then it's just a matter of recharging again. You have to focus on the small details as fixed situations. That could be important in a final. Then it would be fun to keep the zero again, says Victoria Olsson.
