2026-10-03 · Charlie Peat

Viktor Gyokeres found the net once again to make Nations League history for Sweden

Viktor Gyokeres made Nations League history as he found the net in Sweden's 1-1 draw with Bosnia & Herzegovina.

Our number 14 smashed home on 61 minutes to become the first player ever to score in six consecutive Nations League matches.

Viktor is now on 24 goals for his country, three behind the top 10 scorers in Sweden's history.

The draw keeps Sweden at the top of League B, Group 4, two points clear of Bosnia. Viktor and Sweden round off the extended international break with a trip to bottom-of-the-group Romania on Monday.

Elsewhere, Riccardo Calafiori played the full 90 minutes as Italy picked up an impressive draw with France in Paris.

Azzurri fell behind to a stunning effort from Michael Olise early in the second half, only to peg back Les Bleus 13 minutes later through  Alessandro Bastoni.

Italy are now third in League A, Group 1, and host Turkiye on Monday, October 5.

Lastly, Ceadach O'Neill came off the bench for his fourth international cap as Northern Ireland produced a stunning 3-0 win over Ukraine.

After making an unbeaten start to League B, Group 2, Northern Ireland defeated Ukraine in Slovakia, thanks to a double from Ciaron Brown and Isaac Price's header.

Ceadach entered the contest on 84 minutes to see out the match, helping Northern Ireland sit top of their group, bidding for promotion to League A for the first time.
