Sweden Sneak The Win

Sweden vs Paraguay
Berlin

With England already on six points, Sweden's win puts Paraguay out.
The first chance fell to Sweden in the 9th minute, when Kim Kallstrom had his shot pushed around for a corner by Aldo Bobadilla.

Once again, Sweden knocked up a lot of long balls and did a lot of running but had trouble producing anything productive.

Half-time: (0:0).

Just when it looked like Sweden were going to numb the world with another goaless draw, a cross from the right was headed back across the goalmouth, by substitute Marcus Allback, for Fredrik Ljungberg to head past Aldo Bobadilla; two minutes from time.

The Swedish bench celebrated as if they'd just won the World Cup Final, while the Paraquayans knew their World Cup dreams were over.

Sweden now need a point against England to be sure of qualification, or for Trinidad & Tobago to lose or draw against Paraguay.
