The emphatic 5-1 win in the opener briefly made Sweden’s problems in qualifying for the World Cup fade into the background. But the Netherlands are now exposing them in impressive fashion in the second group match. 

A quick double at the start of the game and another shortly after the break have given the Dutch a comfortable 4-0 lead. Time and again, Oranje are tearing Tre Kronor apart down the flanks and finishing ruthlessly. Brobbey and Gakpo each with a brace.

A small glimmer of hope for Sweden only came shortly before the hour mark, when Anthony Elanga finished off a counterattack. Was it more than just a consolation goal? The final half hour will tell!
