Sofia Lundgren (born September 20, 1982) is a Swedish football goalkeeper for Linköpings FC and the Swedish national team.
She has formerly played for Swedish top-teams such as Umeå IK and AIK before signing a two-year contract with LFC in autumn of 2008.[1]
Since making her national team debut in a 6–3 win over England in March 2002, Lundgren has had to compete with Caroline Jönsson, Hedvig Lindahl and latterly Kristin Hammarström for the goalkeeper position.
When Lundgren was injured before the tournament, Maja Åström was drafted into Sweden's squad for UEFA Women's Euro 2005 as the third choice goalkeeper.[2]
A back injury kept a frustrated Lundgren out of Sweden's 2013 Algarve Cup squad.[3]
