This win marks their ninth consecutive victory, the first time achieving such a streak since the 1979-80 season. Despite the strong record, questions arise about the team's performance and the impact of a recent injury to player Lennart Karl. As they head into the World Cup, the squad’s ability to maintain this momentum remains uncertain, especially following a shaky performance against the USMNT.
