Watch Alexander Isak’s beautiful 4-0 goal in the player above.
Last Saturday, Sweden suffered a painful loss away against Luxembourg. Tonight, they somewhat redeemed themselves by crushing Northern Ireland at home.
Alexander Isak showed that he was in a playing mood right away. In the seventh minute, he received a ball in behind the defense and then set up six defending players by passing to Emil Holm – who scored 1-0.
”Oh my god, the run he makes is wonderful,” says Daniel Nannskog about Isak’s assist.
Before half-time, Benjamin Nygren also scored 2-0, making his starting debut in his second national team game.
Dream goal
In the 59th minute, Sweden made it 3-0 through Ken Sema.
The highlight of the match was what came afterwards. Just five minutes later, Isak received the ball outside the penalty area and the Newcastle star fired the ball hard behind Pierce Charles in Northern Ireland’s goal.
”What Isak did is brutal. What a finish,” says Nannskog.
Sweden eventually won 5-1.
Sweden’s next national team game is on June 6. They will face Hungary away.
