The penalty did not result in a goal but after 38.49 Switzerland got a free hit and Sara Schäfer scored a goal directly from Anna Bürgi´s pass. It was 2-1 to Sweden after the first period.
Switzerland had many chances in the third period and was pressing very hard, but did not score a goal. In 59.21 Camilla Nilsson settled the match by scoring the 3-1 goal for Sweden.
MVP: Sara Schäfer (SWI) and the Swedish goalkeeper Sofia Pettersson.
