ShareSweden returned to League B with a victory in the Nations League, with their star strikers both hitting the back of the net in Stockholm.Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyokeres were both on target as Sweden made a winning start to the Nations League with a 2-1 victory over Romania.Having been promoted to League B during the last Nations League campaign, Sweden made a winning return to the competition.They started fast, with Sebastian Nanasi seeing a curling effort pushed away by Ionut Radu with just 32 seconds on the clock.And Isak found a way through in the 20th minute; he peeled off the back of Virgil Ghita to latch onto Yasin Ayari's throughball and his powerful effort nestled into the net, despite Radu getting a hand to the shot.Just nine minutes later, though, Romania were back on level terms. A pacy counter-attack finished with Dennis Man flicking the ball over Victor Lindelof before volleying past a helpless Viktor Johansson.Romania attempted to push for a second, but their momentum was halted two minutes before half-time when Gyokeres fired in the rebound of Lucas Bergvall's saved shot.Elliot Stroud thought he had added a third for Sweden when his lovely looping shot flew into the top-right corner 53 minutes in, but his celebrations were cut short after the goal was ruled out following a VAR review for a handball by Isak in the build-up.Both teams had further chances to add to their tallies, but neither could find another goal, with Sweden moving top of their group with the victory.Sweden's superstars get the ball rollingIsak and Gyokeres have endured very different starts to their respective seasons, but both of them will be thrilled to get on the scoresheet for their nation.Isak has put last season's struggles behind him at Liverpool, already netting four goals in his seven games for them in all competitions, and he was a shining light for Sweden with a game-high three shots and seven touches in the opposition box.Meanwhile, Gyokeres has stumbled so far in 2026-27, failing to hit the back of the net for Arsenal after making just five appearances and only as a starter, without scoring in them.He may have netted the winner for Sweden, but he had a hard time imposing himself in the game, with only one shot in total, while he only managed 31 touches, just over half of what Isak did (60).Sweden returned to League B with a victory in the Nations League, with their star strikers both hitting the back of the net in Stockholm.Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyokeres were both on target as Sweden made a winning start to the Nations League with a 2-1 victory over Romania.Having been promoted to League B during the last Nations League campaign, Sweden made a winning return to the competition.They started fast, with Sebastian Nanasi seeing a curling effort pushed away by Ionut Radu with just 32 seconds on the clock.And Isak found a way through in the 20th minute; he peeled off the back of Virgil Ghita to latch onto Yasin Ayari's throughball and his powerful effort nestled into the net, despite Radu getting a hand to the shot.Just nine minutes later, though, Romania were back on level terms.
