Open roof as Sweden plays Poland to reach this summer's World Cup finals

Almost 50,000 spectators will gather on Tuesday evening to watch Sweden play Poland in the decisive match for a place at this summer's World Cup finals.

Anyone who has a ticket to the hot playoff final would do well to think about their attire. The national football team's decisive match at Strawberry Arena in Solna will be played under an open roof.

"The weather makes it possible to have it open, and the starting point is that it will be open. The team also wants it to be open," says the national team's press officer, Petra Thorén.

According to the weather forecast, no precipitation and a few degrees above zero are expected. The match kicks off at 8:45 p.m.
