Sweden start their FIFA World Cup campaign with a 5-1 victory over Tunisia in Group F. Yasin Ayari scores twice for Sweden, including an early opener and a second goal that multiple outlets describe as a standout strike. Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyökeres also add goals as Sweden build a comfortable lead and cruise to a five-goal margin. Tunisia’s only goal comes from Omar Rekik, who scores in response to Sweden’s dominant performance. The result places Sweden at the top of Group F, with the standings also shaped by other matches involving Japan and the Netherlands reported as being tied or level in different coverage. Several outlets note Tunisia’s errors as contributing to the scoreline, while match summaries consistently credit Ayari’s brace and the combined goals from Isak and Gyökeres for Sweden’s five-goal haul. The win is widely characterized as one of Sweden’s biggest World Cup victories in decades as they take control of the group early in the tournament.
