STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - Swedish soccer fans smashed the attendance record for their women's national team as their side beat Brazil 3-1 on Tuesday in their final friendly before the UEFA Women's Euros get underway in England next week.

Johanna Rytting Kaneryd, Lina Hurtig and Stina Blackstenius got the goals as Sweden came from behind to win as 33,218 fans turned out on a sweltering summer evening in the Swedish capital, easily eclipsing the previous record of 25,882 for a game against Germany in 2019.

One of the substitutes was Rytting Kaneryd, and the winger quickly repaid his faith with a mazy dribble and shot to equalise in the 65th minute to get the party started. The crowd gave a huge send-off to the Sweden players, who danced through a lap of honour as"I Love It" by Swedish duo Icona Pop boomed out of the stadium's speakers.
