In advance, many people tipped Brazil as first in Group C, followed by Morocco in second place.
That's exactly what happened. Last night the group was decided, with Brazil beating Scotland while Morocco defeated Haiti.
The Swedes were reportedly watching the matches because they could face any of those teams in the race to advance.
If Sweden finishes second while the Netherlands wins the group, Brazil awaits in Houston on June 29.
If Sweden wins the group, the 2022 World Cup semi-finalist Morocco awaits on June 30 in Monterrey, Mexico.
Brazil is the most successful World Cup nation of all time with five titles and is considered one of the favorites now as well.
Sweden still has a very good chance of advancing - as long as they don't lose by a large margin in the decisive match against Japan. After tonight's matches, it is clear that one point will be enough to extend Sweden's World Cup summer. This is because there will be enough nations with worse results than Sweden - if they manage to get past Japan.
If Sweden finishes third in the group, another big nation will most likely be waiting - France. But it could also be Norway.
