Sweden striker Freddie Ljungberg was named Man of the Match after his header in the 89th minute helped Sweden edge Paraguay 1-0 in their World Cup group B duel in Berlin on Thursday.

Ljungberg's header also sent the South Americans home as they lost twice without a goal.

Ljungberg, who plays for English Premier side Arsenal, popped up at the far post to head home after teammate Marcus Allback put a center back across goal.

FIFA Technical Studay Group later named Ljungberg as the Man of the Match.
