The Women's 4X6 Relay - Biathlon odds had Sweden coming in at -110, Norway at -330 and France -425.
Sweden's Elvira Oeberg won a silver medal in Friday's sprint.
“We skied the tracks and talked about how we were going to deal with the peaks, where we could save some energy, and we put together a good tactical plan for today,” team coach Anders Bystroem told Reuters.
“We have had good results (in the World Cup), we’ve had a great team effort, but you need that little extra and we had that today – that is what is decisive at the Olympics,” he added.
“The skiing worked much better, it felt like a much better game plan today,” added Oeberg’s sister Hanna, a 2018 Olympic champion.
Her younger sister credited her first Olympic medal to the collective Swedish effort.
“We really worked hard together as a team to get here, and together we took this medal as a team also,” she said.
