Fotbollens historia

The summer of 1994, with the World Cup in the USA, became an enchanted Swedish football summer. Brolin, Dahlin, Ravelli and all the other bronze heroes created football fever throughout the country, and were celebrated at their homecoming by 50,000 people in Rålambshovsparken.

The 1998 World Cup in France was a huge celebration for the home nation. France eventually became world champions for the first time ever after defeating Brazil in the final. Croatia played in its first World Cup tournament and surprisingly took bronze, with the team's star striker Davor Suker becoming the tournament's top scorer.

A trio of young stars burst onto the scene in the 1990s: Peter Forsberg, Mats Sundin, and Nicklas Lidström. They would go on to dominate Swedish ice hockey for two decades. We follow their journey from the national team, *Tre Kronor*, to the NHL and the Olympic gold in Turin in 2006—an event that also marked a major breakthrough for the women's national team, *Damkronorna*, led by Maria Rooth. The film features never-before-seen footage, new interviews, and stories revealing little-known details and pivotal moments, offering fresh perspectives on a sport celebrating its centenary in Sweden.
