This means that the final match against China on Thursday will be decisive.
Sweden started Wednesday by defeating Slovakia 5–4, securing a semifinal spot against Italy later that evening.
But the Swedish mixed team couldn't do it despite having the last stone in the final round with the score 3–3. Skipper Viljo Petersson Dahl missed the final shot while attempting to knock an opponent's stone out of the house, and the home team scored to win 4–3.
