The fiasco is complete.
Sweden failed to beat Slovenia in their must-win match.
The match ended 1–1, thus Jan Andersson’s national team relegated to Division C in the Nations League.
The circumstances were quite clear:
A victory over Slovenia was the only thing that would save Blue Yellow from fiasco and demote him from Class B in the Nations League to Division C, where “blueberry nations” such as the Faroe Islands and Gibraltar reside.
But there was no victory.
There was another miscalculation.
Cisco scorer
19-year-old Slovenian super-talent Benjamin Sisko – nicknamed ‘New Haaland’ whom Blue and Yellow players and managers had previously warned against – hit the Friends Arena and gave Slovenia a ‘van Basten goal’ lead in the 28th minute.
Emil Forsberg responded with a collective action of his own and tied the score 1-1 shortly before the break, but then stopped blatantly.

Despite the great possession of the ball and creating many goal opportunities, no Swedish goal scored 2-1, but the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
With that said, it’s clear that Blågult ends up in last place and leaves Division B.
When the final whistle rang, boos were heard from the stands.
A new slap in the face for Jan Andersson, who is now seriously beginning to question her future as captain of the national team.
