Game results

In the round of 16, Sweden faced a reserve team from Argentina who shouldn't have been serious opponents. Nevertheless, the Swedes found it very difficult and narrowly won.

In the quarter-finals against Germany , a double from Karl Hohmann meant the end for the Scandinavians.

Sweden	-	Argentina	3: 2
Germany	-	Sweden	2: 1
