Match Info

Sweden Women survived a major scare to defeat South Africa Women 2-1 in their Group G opener at Wellington Regional Stadium on July 23rd. The match result was secured by a 90th-minute winner from Amanda Ilestedt, saving the Olympic silver medalists from an embarrassing draw. Sweden took an early lead through Fridolina Rolfö in the 14th minute, but South Africa grew into the game and deservedly equalized in the 48th minute through Hildah Magaia's clever finish. The game appeared headed for a stalemate until Ilestedt rose highest to head home a corner in the dying moments. The victory put Sweden at the top of the group, but the performance will cause concern, while South Africa's spirited display earned plaudits. Sweden's Peter Gerhardsson admitted his team was not at its best, while South Africa's Desiree Ellis was proud of her players' effort.
