"We are very happy. The second set was absolutely incredible," says David Åhman to SVT.

The start was a bit shaky for the Swedes, but after a timeout at 14-16, the match swung in the Swedes' favour. The first set ended 21-18 and in the second there was a brilliant display as they won 21-9.

In Saturday's quarter-finals, another tough challenge awaits in the form of the French pair Bassereau/Aye.

It will be a very tough match, we have to play really well to win it, says Hellvig.

Sweden's other pair, Jacob Hölting Nilsson and Elmer Andersson, have also qualified for the quarter-finals, where they will face the Swiss pair Heidrich/Haussener.
