Sweden entered the World Cup not in the best of form, losing to Norway and Greece in the pre-tournament friendlies and finishing last in their qualifying group. They qualified for the World Cup only thanks to their UEFA Nations League performance. However, they’ve made a cracking start come the big stage.
Gyokeres and Isak both scored in the opening game against Tunisia, while Yasin Ayari was the dynamite in the Swedish midfield, scoring two goals. Graham Potter’s 3-4-1-2 formation worked a treat, as Sweden put in one of the most dominant displays of the World Cup so far.
