The Swedish team defeated Tunisia 5-1 in their first World Cup match. 20-year-old Bergvall came on as a substitute, a moment that also saw him make history.
According to statistics, Bergvall became the youngest player to appear in a World Cup for the Swedish national team, breaking the previous record held by Blomqvist.
The Tottenham Hotspur midfielder was very happy to have made his World Cup debut and made history: "Looking back now, it's amazing, I'm very grateful."
When talking about the team's performance throughout the match, he made no secret of his admiration for the team: "It was a very good performance from start to finish. We showed our strength and proved the quality of this team. I am incredibly proud of my teammates."
Bergvall came on as a substitute in the 64th minute and then provided an assist, helping Sweden score their fifth goal. He actively pressed in the front field, successfully made a tackle, and directly created a scoring opportunity.
When talking about how it felt to be involved in the goal, he said: "Of course it's very significant, but I feel I could have scored one more goal, which would have been even better. But overall it was great."
However, he also admitted that he missed a good opportunity: "I might have handled that opportunity better, but the opponent's defense was also very good, I have to admit that."
Despite not starting, Bergvall had no complaints about his role. He said he fully trusted the coach's arrangements: "We trust Graham, he will choose the best lineup for each game. I am ready whether I start or come on as a substitute, and I can play at any time."
Head coach Potter has also repeatedly emphasized that the entire squad is crucial during the World Cup, and the players are well aware of this. Bergvall said: "We have talked about similar topics a lot. Everyone is part of the team, whether you are a starter or a substitute, you can help the team in different ways.
