Netherlands Crushes Sweden In World Cup Match After Disappointing Opener

The pre-match discourse focused almost exclusively on Sweden’s luxury strikers.

The Oranje appeared to have wrapped up three points against Japan in their opener, only for Daichi Kamada to score an 88th-minute equalizer which consigned Koeman's side to a 2-2 draw.

While Viktor Gyökeres and Alexander Isak had made hay in the 5-1 win against Tunisia, neither could beat Bart Verbruggen here.

Sunderland striker Brobbey got his first start of the tournament and repaid Koeman with predatory goals after five and 17 minutes.
