Viktor Gyokeres Left Feeling 'Sour' Despite 3rd Goal in 3 for Sweden
The Arsenal striker became the first player to score in six straight Nations League matches, but a late Bosnia equaliser denied Sweden victory.
- Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres set a Nations League record, scoring in his sixth consecutive match during Sweden's 1-1 draw with Bosnia at Bilino Polje Stadium in Zenica on Friday.
- The 28-year-old forward has now scored in six straight Nations League games, a historic run that surpasses all previous marks in the competition's history.
- Gyokeres had a first-half goal disallowed for handball before scoring powerfully in the 61st minute from Alexander Bernhardsson's pass, only for Bosnia to equalize in the 80th minute. "It's sour," Gyokeres said.
- Despite the draw, Sweden remains atop Group B4, two points clear of Bosnia. The team prepares for their final international break match against Romania in Bucharest on Monday.
- Following the Romania fixture, Gyokeres will return to the Emirates for Arsenal's match against Leeds United, though midfielder Kai Havertz may miss the game after suffering an injury with Germany last week.
