Incisive Isak stands out among workmanlike Swedes


ST PETERSBURG: Sweden’s industrious approach to their first two Euro 2020 games may not have got anyone’s pulse racing, but thanks to a rock-solid defence and the threat posed by Alexander Isak they have now racked up four points and two clean sheets.

After a rugged and determined goalless draw against Spain in Seville, the Swedes eked out a 1-0 win over Slovakia on Friday in St. Petersburg, with the 21-year-old Isak making the difference.
