The Legacy
Umbro manufactured this home shirt for the Swedish national team at the 1970 World Cup in Mexico. Sweden failed to progress past the group stage after finishing behind Italy and Uruguay on goal difference. Orvar Bergmark managed a squad that included the defensive strength of Björn Nordqvist and the reliable Ronnie Hellström in goal. Ove Kindvall provided the attacking threat during their three matches. Although they managed a win against Israel, the side exited the tournament early despite keeping the scorelines tight in their opening matches.
Key Moment
