International Career
Edman has been a part of the Swedish national team setup, since 2001. In 2002, he was part of the 2002 World Cup squad, but did not make any appearance and was only an unused substitute. He then began to feature more regularly after the 2002 World Cup, and at Euro 2004 and the 2006 World Cup, he started almost all of Sweden's games. He now has a huge amount of experience, with over 50 international caps to his name.
He scored his first and only goal, a free kick, in a 2006 World Cup qualifier against Bulgaria at the Vassil Levski Stadium in March 2005.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.”
—Ruth Behar (b. 1956)
