Thus, the Swedes took revenge for the two-point loss on Thursday evening.

Sweden took control of the match directly and controlled most of it. Above all, the three-point shooting was the big difference.

The Swedes made a total of ten three-pointers, half of them through Frida Eldebrink, while the home team, which also qualified for the European Championship finals, did not make a single one.

Sweden went to the break with an eleven-point lead, 45–34, and at most led the "Blågult" with 15 points in the third period before Lithuania could improve the numbers.

Klara Lundquist became the best scorer for Sweden with 20 points (including one three-pointer) while Frida Eldebrink scored 17.

Sweden plays its European Championship group stage in Hamburg and meets the host nation Germany in the premiere on June 19.

Then the Swedes will also face Great Britain, on Midsummer Eve, and Spain on June 22.
