Viktor Gyökeres Overtakes Erling Haaland to Become Nations League Top Scorer

The Swedish striker has been in impressive form for his country, scoring three goals in two games.

Gyökeres scored twice in Sweden's 3-0 win over Slovenia on Thursday, taking his tally in the Nations League to three goals.

This puts him one goal ahead of Haaland, who has scored twice for Norway in the competition.

Gyökeres has been in fine form for Sweden since making his debut in 2020, scoring seven goals in 11 appearances.

He has also been in good form for his club, Coventry City, scoring 18 goals in 45 appearances in the Championship.

Haaland has also been in impressive form for Norway, scoring 20 goals in 21 appearances.

However, he has yet to score in the Nations League, with his two goals coming in friendlies.

Norway are currently top of their Nations League group, with seven points from three games.

Sweden are second in the group, with six points from three games.

The two teams will meet in the final group game on Sunday, with the winner likely to qualify for the Nations League finals.

Gyökeres will be hoping to add to his goalscoring tally and help Sweden qualify for the finals.

Haaland will also be hoping to get on the scoresheet and help Norway win the group.

The match is sure to be an exciting one, with both teams having plenty to play for.
