Sweden conceded a goal after a French corner kick.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic criticizes Alexander Isak’s actions.
– He should have gone with Mbappé, says Ibrahimovic in Fox.
France quickly got the game going again at the corner flag. Superstar Kylian Mbappé came running in an arc into the penalty area, received the ball and challenged Viktor Gyökeres.
The Swedish striker, who is more used to challenging than defending, had no chance against Mbappé who feinted him away and slotted the ball in at the far post.
– How will Gyökeres stop Mbappé at the goal? France lures out the player standing on the first post who cannot defend, says the former great player Thierry Henry in American Fox.

He is an expert for the TV channel during this championship together with Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The Swede pointed to another detail in the Swedish defensive game.
– Isak should have gone with Mbappé, says Ibrahimovic.
Isak was standing just outside the penalty area and pointed to his teammates that Mbappé was on his way.
But Henry, who played 123 senior caps for France, praises the French tactic. He believes that the French players were aware that the attackers Isak and Gyökeres were closest to defend the first surface.
