Sweden spoiled Australia's party by collecting its fourth top-three finish in tournament history and second in a row with Saturday's 2-0 win in Brisbane.
Short team, this summer's success has tangible benefits. Off the field, Australia's federation will be able to leverage the Matildas' vastly increased marketability and create additional revenue streams, money which can then be reinvested into the team. On it, a spot on the podium at next summer's Olympics in Paris has to be seen as a wholly realistic next goal.The Swedes deserve a ton of credit for their approach to this game.
The Blue and Yellow will get their title eventually, maybe as soon as next summer in France in what could be the last go-round for Asllani and several other decorated veterans. But this World Cup has been yet another reminder that Sweden remains one of the best and most consistent national teams in the women's game.Doug McIntyre is a soccer writer for FOX Sports.
