Team Hasselborg had to thank for the match after the ninth round.
– They don’t miss much, it was tough. I didn’t think we played that badly, says Anna Hasselborg in SVT’s broadcast.
The Swedes got off to a nightmare start and had a tough time initially. After five innings, Switzerland was leading 5–1.
– Sweden can’t get their game together all the way. They have done a very good EC tournament and have a great reason to be proud of their effort, says SVT Sports expert Eva Lund.
The gold winner: “There is no better feeling”
The blue-and-yellow played up a bit – but the opponents acted steadily towards the end and decided the whole thing in the ninth inning. The match ended 8–4.
– There is no better feeling than winning, says Silvana Tirinzoni in SVT’s broadcast.
Team Hasselborg also lost against Switzerland earlier in the tournament, that meeting ended 5–7.
