Bolton striker Johan Elmander stunned Wales with a brilliant winner as Sweden recorded a 1-0 win in the international friendly in Swansea.

Elmander, who has scored just twice in the Premier League this season, showed quality rarely seen at the Reebok Stadium with a fine strike on the stroke of half-time.

Ola Toivonen had earlier had a header ruled out for offside but a youthful Wales side battled hard in the second half and substitute Robert Earnshaw twice went close.
