Notes

Teams from a large part of northern Sweden, approximately above the province of Medelpad, were not allowed to play in the national league system until the 1953–54 season, and a championship was instead played to decide the best team in Norrland.
The fourth Swedish goal is also reported as an own goal by Jan Włodarczyk.
