Andreas Granqvist gives Sweden victory
Andreas Granqvist gives Sweden victory over South Korea after VAR intervention.
Sweden locked up three crucial points at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia after converting a video assistant referee-confirmed penalty kick in the second half to beat South Korea, 1-0, on Monday. In a back-and-forth match that saw South Korea look like the stronger team early and at the very end, Sweden managed to control the majority of the middle of the match. Sweden had 15 shots, five on frame, while holding South Korea to zero shots on goal.
Sweden fans on Sunday had seemed undecided whether they should join the general glee at Germany’s defeat by Mexico or not. That was not how they had envisaged a possible path to the last 16 opening up. But the fact is now that if they can avoid defeat against Germany on Saturday they could be in a position in which a draw against Mexico in their final match takes both sides through. Modern technology has delivered a very old-fashioned possibility.
