'''Sofia Lundgren''' (born 20 September 1982) is a [[Swedes|Swedish]] former [[Association football|footballer]] who played as a [[Goalkeeper (association football)|goalkeeper]].

She has formerly played for leading Swedish teams such as [[Umeå IK]] and [[AIK Fotboll (women)|AIK]] before signing a two-year contract with [[Linköpings FC]] in the autumn of 2008.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Mäki|first1=Anders|title=Ny målvakt klar för LFC|url=http://www.linkopingfc.com/index.php?articleid=185|accessdate=14 May 2015|publisher=[[Linköping FC]]|date=6 November 2008|language=Swedish}}</ref>

Since making her national team debut in a 6–3 win over [[England women's national football team|England]] in March 2002, Lundgren competed 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.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.uefa.com/news-media/news/01a9-0e13cf4cc800-9dc2ed3e07e1-1000--six-centurions-make-sweden-squad/|title=Six centurions make Sweden squad|publisher=[[UEFA]]|date=17 May 2005|access-date=12 June 2013|first=Jan|last=Juhlin}}</ref>

A back injury kept a frustrated Lundgren out of Sweden's [[2013 Algarve Cup]] squad.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.svd.se/sport/skadeproblem-for-sofia-lundgren_7967572.svd|title=Diskbråck stoppar Sofia Lundgren|work=Svenska Dagbladet |publisher=[[Svenska Dagbladet]]|date=5 March 2013|accessdate=12 June 2013|language=Swedish}}</ref> The injury eventually kept Lundgren out of all football for one-and-a-half seasons. She signed for [[Damallsvenskan]] newcomers [[Hammarby Fotboll (women)|Hammarby IF DFF]] in January 2015.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Nilsson|first1=Anders|title=Landslagsmålvakt klar för Hammarby|url=http://www.aftonbladet.se/sportbladet/fotboll/sverige/damallsvenskan/article20119232.ab|accessdate=14 May 2015|publisher=[[Aftonbladet]]|date=7 January 2015|language=Swedish}}</ref> At the beginning of the 2016 season Lundgren signed a short-term contract with Swedish champions [[FC Rosengård]]. The contract was extended when Rosengård's first choice goalkeeper [[Erin McLeod]] suffered an [[anterior cruciate ligament injury]] and [[Zećira Mušović]] struggled to overcome a broken arm.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Brattgård|first1=Louv|title=FC Rosengård förlänger med Lundgren|url=http://www.svt.se/sport/fotboll/fc-rosengard-forlanger-med-lundgren/|accessdate=24 August 2016|publisher=[[Sveriges Television]]|date=12 April 2016|language=Swedish}}</ref>
