Linda Sembrant s stoppage-time winner scraped a dramatic 1-0 win over Belgium that sent Sweden through to the Women s Euro 2022 semi-finals.
With Sweden s 33rd and final attempt of the match, Sembrant fired home to break the hearts of a Belgium side who were contesting their first knockout game in Women s European Championship history.
Peter Gerhardsson s side will now take on hosts England in the semi-finals in Sheffield on Tuesday.
Stina Blackstenius thought she had given Sweden the lead in the 25th minute, but her goal was ruled out for offside following a VAR review.
Belgium mustered just one attempt on goal in the first half and Sweden continued their domination after the interval, but Nicky Evrard s instinctive save kept Blackstenius close-range header out in the 73rd minute.
The Scandinavian side finally found the breakthrough in the second added minute. Belgium failed to defend a corner and although Evrard saved Nathalie Bjorn s effort, Sembrant turned home on the follow-up.
33 Sweden’s winning goal was scored from their 33rd and final shot of the match, while it was the first ever 90th-minute winning goal in the knockout stages of the UEFA Women’s Championship (excl. extra-time). Gasp.
