Sweden's World Cup team roster announced
Sweden's World Cup team roster was announced at a big live TV event in Stockholm Tuesday evening. No big surprises, but two uncapped players (Kristin Hammarström and Madeleine Edlund) and one who played her first national team match only a few months ago (Linda Forsberg) gives the selection a youthful edge.
