All about Sweden Women’s Football Team for the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023
Sweden Women’s Football team is heading into the FIFA Women’s World Cup with great confidence after performing well in the Euros by reaching to semi-final.
Sweden’s team lost to England by 4-0 in the Euros 2022, and after that, they had a hard time in the qualifiers as they lost to Denmark in April and then had a draw with Norway in a high-scoring match where both teams scored 3-3 goals.
Their journey has been amazing, but they also had quite heartbroken moments when they finished runner-ups in the 2003 and 2016 World Cup. They were also runner-up in the 2020 Olympic games, which clearly a heartbreaking moment because you are so close to the cup but can’t lift it.
Kosovare Asllani is one of their best player who can turn around the match with her own strength, but she is not 100 fit right now. She has over 100 match experiences and knows how to handle pressure in tough situations.
Sweden Women’s Football Team is going to look to try to get their hands on World Cup as they did in 2003, 2016 but failed in the finals.
Stina Blackstenius is having a great outing in 2023, as she already scored 3 goals and gave 5 assists which clearly shows the skill of the winger, who will be quite important for the national team.
The Barcelona women’s team attacker Fridolina Rolfo has been in amazing goal-scoring form in 2023 as in her last 12 matches, she scored 6 goals and also gave 1 assist. She will be the target player for the Sweden team.
It will not be easy for Sweden because they are in a tough group in FIFA Women’s World Cup with Argentina, Italy, and South Africa. Italy will be their biggest threat in the group, but they might be the table’s topper.
