Netherlands Crush Sweden 5-1
Description
The Netherlands erupted in style, hammering Sweden 5-1 to seize top spot in Group F after a shaky opener. Brian Brobbey and Cody Gakpo each smashed in two goals, Gakpo adding an assist, as the Dutch unleashed wide crosses that paid off big time. Sweden, who’d earlier crushed Australia 5-1, suffered their worst World Cup defeat since 1950 — though they avoided a shutout with a late goal. Dutch keeper Bart Verbruggen stood tall with four saves, while Crysencio Summerville capped the win with a cheeky basketball celebration. King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima watched from the stands as Sweden now turns to Japan, and the Netherlands eyes Tunisia next.
