Soon after their fleet entered the mouth of the Neva River, the Swedes were roundly defeated in the Battle of the Neva by a young prince, Alexander of Novgorod, who would later be given the epithet "Nevsky" to memorialize this victory.
Ubrzo nakon što im je flota ušla u ušće rijeke Neve, Šveđani su teško poraženi u poznatoj bitci kod Neve od princa Aleksandra od Novgoroda, koji će kasnije u uspomenu na ovu pobjedu dobiti nadimak "Nevski".
