The swedish national team rose to extreme expectations as they defeated England 4-1 in the World Cup final. England played a great second half, but little did that matter as the Swedes already had hammered home a 4-0 lead. While Sweden rejoices, a lot of credit goes out to the rest of the national teams that have improved A LOT over the last season and will continue to do so! Come next World Cup, the final standings may look a lot different. Let the preparations begin!
