Victory against Switzerland and Finland, but defeat against the Czech Republic. That was the outcome for the Women's Crown in the four-team tournament Euro Hockey Tour in Kloten, Switzerland.

Against the Czech Republic, the Swedish women's ice hockey team was down 0-3, but Sara Hjalmarsson was able to score 1-3 with 42 seconds left to play in the first period. Hjalmarsson reduced the lead again in the middle act, and after 8.35, Lina Ljungblom was able to score an equalizing goal.

However, that's where the Women's Crown's goal-scoring stopped. More than halfway through the match, Andrea Trnkova scored 4-3, and via two more goals in the third period, the Czech Republic was able to win 6-3.

On Thursday, Sweden won 4-1 against Switzerland, and on Friday, they achieved a 7-5 victory against Finland.
