Premier League big guns on top

By David Hirst
Gyokeres and Isak are bullying Tunisia.
Not surprising seeing they cost about a combined $370 million.
30' 2-0 Sweden!!

By David Hirst
Alexander Isak scores!
It's a bad goal for Tunisia to concede.
Sweden go through the middle with ease. Isak gets the ball, cuts inside and fires home.
Keeper should really have done better though.
Isak's movement was great. That's why Liverpool paid $257 million for him.
22' Drinks break

Sweden on top at the first drinks break.
18' Could be a long night for Tunisia

Tunisia really struggling to get a foothold in the game.
Saad just broke forward for Tunisia but fired well over.
Sweden look up for this. Full of intensity.

Yasin Ayari could have been playing for Tunisia because of his heritage.
Oh what could have been.
The Brighton midfielder really put his foot through it.
7' Goal Sweden!!!!

A beauty!
Gyokeres has a shot cleared off the line but Yasin Ayari fires in from outside the box.
WHAT A HIT
4' Gyokeres fires over for Sweden

Viktor Gyokeres does well to break forward, he cuts inside before blasting a shot over the bar.
Looked sharp though the Arsenal man.
And off we go!

Tunisia kick off the final game for today.
Let's hope it's a decent game.
Amazing atmosphere

By David Hirst
I have to say the atmospheres at all the games so far have been fantastic despite issues with ticket prices and politics.
The stadium in Monterrey lights up as the players come out for the national anthems.
We're heading back to Mexico

Today's final game is being played at the Estadio Monterrey in Mexico.
The fans are out in force.
Sweden's big guns in the line-up
D
By David Hirst
The Swedes have some serious attacking talent in their team.
Viktor Gyokeres just won the Premier League with Arsenal. He scored a hat-trick in the play-offs to get Sweden to the World Cup.
Alongside him is the most expensive player in EPL history, Alexander Isak.
The Liverpool man had a tough first season with injury, though, but if he's 100 per cent, Tunisia will find him tough to cope with.
Sweden's bizarre qualification
D
By David Hirst
It's bizarre that Sweden are even at this World Cup.
They didn't win a single qualifying game, finishing bottom of their group.
But because of FIFA's convoluted qualifying process, they still managed to get to a play-off, which they won.

Wow. What a finish to an entertaining game.

FULL TIME: Côte d'Ivoire 1 Ecuador 0

Substitute Amad Diallo scored a dramatic late winner as Côte d'Ivoire beat Ecuador in their Group E match in Philadelphia.
In a feisty match, both sides missed chances to score, with Ecuador twice hitting the bar in the first half.
Elye Wahi came closest for Côte d'Ivoire when his shot also crashed off the bar.
But in the 89th minute, Diallo produced a fantastic finish after a cross from the right to secure the win.
Côte d'Ivoire's teenage winger Yan Diomande was the standout performer, tormenting the Ecuador defence down the left-hand side.
And that's it!
