Sets up lone goal
Isak assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and four chances created in Saturday's 5-1 defeat against Netherlands.
Analysis: Isak provided the assist for Sweden's only goal of the match as they were entirely outplayed. Isak was actually reasonably productive whenever he got on the ball, but he was just limited as Sweden's midfield was totally dismantled. Isak is up to two goal contributions in two matches in the group stage.
Runs rampant in Tunisia fixture
Isak scored one goal and assisted twice from three shots (two on target) and two chances created in Sunday's 5-1 win versus Tunisia.
Analysis: Isak was on fire in the opener and played a part in three of the five goals, doubling his team's lead in the first half with an accurate shot from an angled position, which was poorly deflected by Abdelmouhib Chamakh, ending up in the bottom corner. He teed up Viktor Gyokeres after stripping an opponent near the box and assisted Mattias Svanberg with a subtle touch on a set piece in the second half. He was the runner-up in attempts on his side. He's off to a great start in the World Cup after a disappointing and injury-ravaged season at Liverpool, during which he posted just three goals and one assist in 23 appearances (12 starts).
