🧠 Match Summary

vs

Netherlands put on a stunning display in Houston to crush Sweden 5-1 and advance through Group F in commanding fashion. Brian Brobbey was electric in the opening stages, striking twice inside 17 minutes to set the tone, before Cody Gakpo added two more either side of the hour mark to put the contest beyond doubt. Crysencio Summerville added a fifth in stoppage time to complete a dominant evening for the Dutch.

Sweden, despite generating 15 shots and matching Netherlands with seven efforts on target, were let down by a shaky defensive showing. Anthony Elanga pulled one back on 59 minutes to briefly raise hopes, but the Swedes simply could not contain a Netherlands attack that exploited every opportunity with clinical efficiency, as referee Michael Oliver oversaw a physical contest that earned Sweden three yellow cards.
