The Ayari Show, In Pics: Swedish Midfielder Of Tunisian Descent Torments The Eagles Of Carthage

Sweden Vs Tunisia Match Photos: In a lopsided FIFA World Cup 2026 Group F match at the Monterrey Stadium on Sunday (June 14), Sweden thrashed Tunisia 5-1. The match proved deeply personal for Yasin Ayari, whose parents are from Tunisia and Morocco. The 22-year-old midfielder stole the show by opening the scoring and bookending the masterclass with the final hit. He indeed had the final say. Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyokeres, and Mattias Svanberg also scored for the 1958 runners-up, while Omar Rekik was on the mark for the Eagles of Carthage. The match carried massive importance for both sides following a 2-2 draw between Japan and the Netherlands. Up next, Graham Potter's Blagult take on the Dutch in Houston on June 20, while Tunisia will stay back in Mexico to face Japan later that same night. Making their 13th appearance, Sweden are seeking to re-establish their international pedigree. Meanwhile, Tunisia, entering their seventh World Cup, will hope to end their group-stage curse.
