Even the world's best orienteers make mistakes sometimes.
Tove Alexandersson took a wrong turn at a wall in the world cup in Genoa and Sweden had to settle for fourth place in the sprint relay.
Martin Regborn sent Tove Alexandersson off as second on the last leg, just two seconds behind Finland.
But Alexandersson got lost in the pursuit of victory. She thought she could pass a wall down to the sea promenade, but it was a dead end, according to SVT.
The mistake cost time and Sweden – which is the reigning world and European champion in the sprint relay – finished fourth.
Simona Aebersold secured Swiss victory, 4.7 seconds ahead of Finland. The Czech Republic finished third.
Alva Sonesson and Emil Svensk ran the first two legs for Sweden.
