Felicia Schröder scored a hat-trick in her debut for the Swedish women's national football team during a 5–0 World Cup playoff victory against Lithuania in Kaunas. The 19-year-old Real Madrid striker opened the scoring with a penalty in the 24th minute, followed by two more goals in the second half to secure the win.
