Gyökeres, Isak and Ayari run riot as Sweden demolish Tunisia 5-1 in World Cup opener
Sweden put on a ruthless Group Stage display at Estadio Monterrey, with Yasin Ayari bagging a brace, Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyökeres combining brilliantly throughout, and Mattias Svanberg scoring the fastest substitute goal in World Cup history — just 13 seconds after coming on.
Omar Rekik’s header gave Tunisia brief hope at 2-1, but Graham Potter’s side were simply too sharp, too clinical.
Sweden’s first World Cup since 2018 is off to a flying start. Tunisia, meanwhile, remain winless in their last four against European opposition.
