Swedish fans snap up tickets for Women's Euro knockout clash with England
OBERENTFELDEN, Switzerland :The Swedish national team received a boost as their fans went on a ticket-buying frenzy on Monday, buying up all the available spots in their section for Thursday's Women's Euro quarter-final game against England in Zurich within an hour of going on sale. The Swedish fans formed a noisy yellow wall behind one of the goals in each of their three Group C games, winning all three to set up the last-eight showdown with reigning champions England, who beat them in the semi-finals at the last tournament. "This news gives the whole team so much energy in the build-up to the quarter-finals," forward Madelen Janogy said in a statement issued by the Swedish Football Association (SvFF). "The support from everyone there has been incredible so far, and we are really looking forward to playing in front of a full house of yellow supporters again on Thursday. Together, we will do everything we can to win against England and advance." The SvFF said that the 2000 tickets allocated to the Swedes went on sale at 0900 CET on Monday and that they sold out within 60 minutes, and advised fans who missed out to keep an eye on UEFA's public ticket portal.

Leo Carlsson and Isac Lundeström are ready to shine for Sweden at the 2025 Betano Hockey Games and World Championship
Image Via Getty With the 2026 Winter Olympics in sight, Leo Carlsson and Isac Lundeström will shine on the international stage for Sweden at the 2025 Betano Hockey Games and the World Championship. These tournaments present a golden opportunity for both players to prove they are ready for even bigger challenges. While Carlsson's summons were already known, Lundeström's addition puts an interesting spin on their situations as they chase dreams beyond club hockey. Leo Carlsson's growing impact and Isac Lundeström's crucial crossroads Another trip for Leo Carlsson into the Swedish Team continues the trend he practiced during the 4 Nations Face-off earlier this year. He participated in only one game there, but Carlsson's upward transition within the NHL, aggregating an impressive 26 points in 28 games, was fulfilled. The late blooming could indicate a maturing player who is starting to develop the ability over time to translate short international experience into longer-term incremental benefits and improvements on the ice. On the flip side, Isac Lundeström faces a career-turning summer. With free agency upon him, whatever he does during the Betano Hockey Games and World Championship could determine Lundetröm's fate. He can offer a great deal as a two-way forward, but the emergence of top prospects like Tim Washer and the development of Jan Myšák in the AHL have raised some concern over Lundeström's long-term role with the Ducks. General Manager Pat Verbeek might place Lundeström's job under scrutiny for younger and cheaper options. A whole different context involves Lundeström having been very much a guiding figure for Carlsson during last season, especially once Jakob Silfverberg went back to Sweden. If Lundeström doesn't return, Carlsson could find himself the lone Swedish player on Anaheim's roster adjustment that could shape personal as well as professional ramifications. As Carlsson and Lunderstrom prepare to wear their nation's colors, the two are thinking of much more than immediate success. Both players want to prove worthy of a place on Sweden's Olympic team for the upcoming 2026 Winter Games, with Carlsson aiming to maintain his escalating trajectory and Lundeström struggling to gain steady ground in the NHL.

For Carlsson, it is about preserving the momentum of his breakout year; for Lundaström, it could be the biggest step toward securing his professional life in any hockey league. As Sweden looks on, we can hardly bet higher stakes for these two coming stars.
