Midfielder Mattias Svanberg has been called up to the Swedish men's national football team after over a year's absence. New head coach Graham Potter selected him directly, and Svanberg describes it as a relief. Meanwhile, Ken Sema reunites with his former coach Potter in the squad.
In Graham Potter's first match as Sweden's coach, the team lost 1–4 to Switzerland in the World Cup qualifier in Geneva. Despite a strong start, the game collapsed after a controversial penalty. Second place in the group is now out of reach, with Sweden focusing on the March playoff.
