With Graham Potter, Sweden, Mo.
Well, Christopher Northfield and goal will be so important for this side.
But keep an eye on Victor Lindelof.
They're playing with the back three and his experience is going to be pivotal for this Swedish side.
But the main focus will be how well the two strikers can combine.
Victor Jokre is coming off of a star-studded season with Arsenal.
20 plus goals there.
Alexander Isak, mixed bag.
He's a lot of question marks at the front of the pitch.
But again, their quality is on the backside of their lineup, Mo.
Well, I'm focused on the midfield as well.
Ellis Skiri, he's their captain.
Patrols at midfield.
He's played every minute of the last two World Cups for his team.
So he brings a tremendous amount of experience to that midfield.
But Hannibal Medri, he's their star boy.
Creative off the dribble.
Can see a final pass.
I'd like to see him get a couple more goals.
Lindelof taking one.
Trying to find Isak.
He might be able to get a touch here.
Carried away initially.
It's Victor Jokre.
Assen has cleared off the line.
Still a chance available here for Sweden.
Assen!
What a strike!
And what a start for the Swedes!
And it's Yasin Iori!
Well, what a big moment for the man from Brighton.
The subdued celebration because he could have played for Tunisia,
but opted to represent Sweden.
This conversation was about the striker.
The two strikers.
I want you to watch the movement of Alexander Isak.
He gets himself back onside.
And now he's able to exploit that space in behind.
But watch Jokre.
He's not far behind his striking partner.
And as a result, he's able to be in the right position to get a strike off.
But this is just quality.
An absolute, impeachable finish from Yasin Iori.
Just cleaned things up from distance.
Just puts his laces through it.
Enough power.
Enough pace.
Nothing Shamok and goal can do to deny the man wearing the number 18 shirt
to give his side an early lead in this match.
Well, there were multiple Tunisian defenders who were scrambling,
trying to help out their goalkeeper,
who had found himself in here for Tunisia.
If you commit numbers forward.
Jokre lays it off for Isak.
Alexander Isak putting it up for him.
Right hands things in.
And the Liverpool man who has struggled much this year,
opening up his World Cup account.
It's 2-0 to Sweden.
It's a dream connection if you're a Sweden fan.
Viktor Jokre is picking on Alexander Isak.
And the big man up top doing the rest.
But this will go down as a goalkeeping error as well.
If you love the transition football from Sweden, how quickly they turn.
Good defending.
It's not just a good scoring chance, but a ball that finds it back in the net.
But it just comes from that chemistry.
Tunisia trying to play central.
There's so many bodies centrally from Sweden,
but now watch them moving up the ball.
Isak just floating into that space in that wide channel.
Jokre, he knows where he's at.
And now at this point, it's just too lax defensively.
But the strike, you see that strike from that angle.
And yes, Isak does all the things that he's supposed to do.
Keep it on target.
Get some decent pace on it.
But all eyes would be on the Tunisian goalkeeper.
That's a save that he has to make to keep his side of the game.
Instead, Alexander Isak gets his 18th goal for Sweden to double the lead.
And Graham Potter absolutely loving it.
Plenty of question marks.
He'll have a second chance at it.
And Hannibal flips it.
A dangerous cross.
It's an excellent ball and a great goal.
And it's the youngster, Omar Rekic, who pulls Tunisia right back into this game.
Well, it's on cue.
We just talked about Hannibal.
Can you keep your head and provide that moment of quality for your side?
And as this long throw gets recycled, keep an eye on number four.
Because he does just enough to stay onside.
And when that ball gets delivered in, and what a ball it is,
Hannibal finally beats the first man and puts the ball into a dangerous area.
And now it's just a little glancing header.
There's enough power on the ball that all Rekic has to do is just redirect it.
See, the keeper's gone and cheated to the near post.
And just any kind of redirection gets him flat-footed.
And we talked about one goal gets your side right back into this game.
And hopefully that gives the crowd some encouragement and Tunisia to go on there.
It's an awkward ball for the Sweden back line.
It's these second balls that they're picking up that are dangerous.
As Hannibal floats it, that might find its way in.
And the way that they're pressing higher up the pitch.
They've got to be careful with these kind of moments.
But the way that they're pressing when Sweden tries to build out of the back.
Going man for man with three higher up the pitch to really...
Give it away, Isak.
Pulling off the ball for a moment.
It's good for Rekic.
And before he got involved, and Sweden restore order here of opening.
And it is a calamity for Eli Skierri.
And all eyes are on the captain for Tunisia.
Because it's an absolute gift of a goal to allow Sweden to extend their lead back.
If you're a Swedish fan, you'd love to see your two strikers connecting again.
Now just watch this.
It's a casual ball.
Never checks his shoulder.
Just too lethargic in possession.
And once you can see the ball in that area.
Both center backs are exposed.
And it's the simplest of finishes for Jokuris.
But just watch Isak come back into the picture.
I'm not sure why Skierri is trying to dribble right into pressure.
Isak does so well.
He's using his strength to maintain possession.
And from that distance, it's an absolute gift for Jokuris.
Gets his 21st goal in the yellow shirt of Sweden.
To extend the lead back to 3-1 in the second half.
And it just feels like three very preventable goals that Tunisia have conceded tonight.
But Sweden won't mind.
And Viktor Jokuris.
Loving life at the moment.
Premier League champion, of course.
They fell short in the Champions League final.
But that's now his 16th goal in his last 15 caps for Sweden.
Lagerby Jokuris.
Into the back of Lukas Berghoff.
Hits it on the first time.
Jokuris might be able to get there.
Despite the acrobatic effort.
Trickles out of play for a goal kick.
Love to see that.
Straight into the game.
Lukas Berghoff getting involved in the attack.
Just once again, does a good job.
I love that he picks his head up.
Instead of taking a touch, he's trying to play that first time ball in.
Just slightly overcooks it.
And Jokuris is looking to get his second of the night.
But the intention is spot on.
Another substitute for Grandpa as well.
And Sweden have their fourth.
And it's Farnberg with his first touch of the night.
But the offside flag is up.
And spoils what would have been quite the party for the boys in yellow.
Would have been his first touch.
And it was Farnberg starting in that offside position.
After review, the player number 19 is in offside position.
Final decision goal.
And the goal has been given.
And there it is. A very belated.
Another spectacular offer.
How good is this kid?
And this time he will celebrate.
Yossi Nahoni.
Just watch the technique.
I love the first touch.
Gets it out of his feet early.
Doesn't get a secondary touch.
Knows where the goal is.
This time it's a little bit of a...
