“Not to take anything away from Australia, or indeed Canada, but Sweden have been the best team I’ve seen at these Olympics,” emails Kári Tulinius, and I reckon most observers would agree. “They seem to have a clear idea what to do every time they get the ball, and every player knows their role when they defend. Maybe this time Sweden will break their football final curse, at the umpteenth time of asking.”
This will be Sweden’s second Olympic final, to go with one runner-up finish in the World Cup, not to mention four further semis across both competitions. They’re due.
