World Cup ends against France
Isak logged two shots (one on goal) during Sweden's 3-0 loss to France on Tuesday.
Analysis: In terms of shots on goal for the World Cup, Isak was consistent all tournament, logging either one or two each appearance. Unfortunately for him, competing against a top France was an insurmountable challenge that abruptly ends his WC campaign. Even though Isak logged only one goal, the striker averaged a 1.00 G/A using chance creations. With seven created, he logged three assists, boosting some of his relatively proven teammates like Anthony Elanga, Mattias Svanberg and Viktor Gyokeres. France game aside, Isak's updated form is decently high; so ideally for the forward's club Liverpool, he will be in better shape a season after his record signing.
Decoy for Sweden's goal
Isak generated two shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Thursday's 1-1 draw versus Japan.
Analysis: Isak played 90 minutes in the final World Cup group stage game, and this was the first game that he failed to have a goal involvement despite having two shots on target. The striker was used as a decoy for Anthony Elanga to find the far corner of the goal. His strike for the far corner looked as if it could have been headed into the goal, and therefore the keeper couldn't react, and therefore Elanga found the corner. He has created seven chances across the three group stage games, creating three assists and he scored his only goal in the opening game.
