The blue and yellow team won their championship opener in Pori, Finland, with a whopping 34-0 win over Hungary - which is Sweden men's national team's biggest World Cup victory of all time.

The record was not improved against the Netherlands the following day, with Sweden winning by "only" 28-0.

The top scorer for the day was Villa Lidköping's striker Christoffer Edlund with eight goals. Västerås' Pontus Vilén was second-best with five goals.

On Wednesday, Sweden faces Norway.
