With less than a minute left, goalkeeper Ebba Svensson Träff made an important save when Switzerland pulled its goalie and applied pressure with an extra player on the ice. But Switzerland didn't get any closer than that in Esbjerg, Denmark.
It's so much fun to be with this group. Today we really worked hard throughout the match, and it's obvious that we want to do it for each other. I almost get a little moved. Awesome, of course, says Thea Johansson.
She had a bump on her face, but it wasn't bothering her at the time.
You have to accept it - there's blood, sweat and tears out there, and everyone is working for each other.
Cross control
Sara Hjalmarsson became the match hero with her deflection of Mira Jungåker's shot after 14:40 of the second period.
It was time to put it in, so it was nice, Hjalmarsson told SVT during the second-period break.
Sweden lost the bronze-medal game to Switzerland at the Olympics in Milan last winter. The women's team lost 0-1 after the Swiss scored with 50 seconds left in overtime.
It was a heavy loss then - but now it was a great win.
And the women's team have the chance to win their first championship medal since taking bronze at the 2007 World Cup.
Canada next
Erika Holst, now the national team captain, was a player at the time. She told SVT there were "fantastically happy faces" in the locker room after the quarter-final win.
But we got over it pretty quickly. It's great that we won the match.
But in two days we need to be significantly better than we were today.
What Holst is calling for most in Sunday's semi-final is "more accuracy from all sides".
Canada awaits in Sunday's semi-final, which starts at 7 p.m. The teams met in the group-stage opener a week ago - Canada won 5-1. In the other semi-final, the USA will face Finland.
