She won 24 [caps](/source/Cap_(sports)) and scored six goals for the [Sweden women's national football team](/source/Sweden_women's_national_football_team).

## Club career

In 1987, while playing for the Gothenburg club [GAIS](/source/GAIS), Hultin was named [Swedish Women's Footballer of the Year](/source/Diamantbollen). After [transferring](/source/Transfer_(association_football)) to [Jitex BK](/source/Jitex_BK) based in nearby [Mölndal](/source/M%C3%B6lndal), she won the award again in 1989.[2] Her 25 goals that season made her the top goal scorer and helped Jitex secure the [1989 Damallsvenskan](/source/1989_Damallsvenskan) title.[3]

## International career

Hultin made her debut for [Sweden women's national football team](/source/Sweden_women's_national_football_team) in the [1984 European Competition for Women's Football qualifying](/source/1984_European_Competition_for_Women's_Football_qualifying) series, as a [substitute](/source/Substitute_(association_football)) in a 5–0 win over [Iceland](/source/Iceland_women's_national_football_team) in [Ronneby](/source/Ronneby) on 24 August 1983.[4] She scored her first goal in Sweden's next fixture, a 2–1 win over rivals [Norway](/source/Norway_women's_national_football_team) in [Elverum](/source/Elverum_(town)) on 24 September 1983.

Sweden had a strong team during Hultin's national team career and, although she amassed a 20–1–3 record in her 24 appearances, she was not selected for the final stages of Sweden's victorious [1984 European Competition for Women's Football](/source/1984_European_Competition_for_Women's_Football) campaign. She did participate in the squads which finished second in [1987](/source/1987_European_Competition_for_Women's_Football) and third in [1989](/source/1989_European_Competition_for_Women's_Football),[5] and she featured in the 2–0 [friendly](/source/Exhibition_game) win over [England](/source/England_women's_national_football_team) at [Wembley Stadium](/source/Wembley_Stadium_(1923)) in May 1989. Her final appearance was in February 1991, prior to the [1991 FIFA Women's World Cup](/source/1991_FIFA_Women's_World_Cup) in November.
