Sweden news

Tunisia have sensationally sacked head coach Sabri Lamouchi just one game into their 2026 World Cup campaign. The decision comes in the wake of a devastating 5-1 defeat at the hands of Sweden in their Group F opener on Sunday.

Graham Potter’s World Cup debut as Sweden manager was a dream on the pitch but the former Chelsea boss was left nursing a bloodied ear following a dominant 5-1 victory over Tunisia. While his side moved to the top of Group F with a ruthless attacking display, Potter sustained a mystery injury during the post-match celebrations.

Sweden made a devastating statement of intent at the 2026 World Cup as they dismantled Tunisia 5-1 to move to the top of Group F. Spearheaded by the clinical duo of Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyokeres, who both got their names on the scoresheet, the Scandinavians proved far too powerful for their African opponents in Monterrey.

Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler has told GOAL why he is “a little bit worried” about Alexander Isak, with the £125 million ($167m) striker under pressure to deliver during his second season at Anfield. The most expensive player in British football has been warned that his price tag will count for nothing if he offers little return on that record-shattering investment.
