Viktor Gyokeres’ love story with the Nations League continues after scoring in Sweden’s draw against Bosnia and Herzegovina.

During the 2024/25 Nations League, the Arsenal striker was the leading scorer across the entire campaign, netting nine goals to claim the top scorer award ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo (eight) and Erling Haaland (seven).

Those strikes were vital to Sweden being handed a World Cup qualification lifeline, with Gyokeres then taking it upon himself in the play-offs to fire his nation to the finals earlier in the summer.

In addition, Gyokeres’ goals in the Nations League ultimately played a big role in helping Sweden to earn promotion to League B as they topped Group C1 ahead of Slovakia, Estonia and Azerbaijan.

And the striker has picked up from where he left off, scoring in all three games in the new 2026/27 Nations League campaign against Romania, Poland and Bosnia.

Having also netted in the final three games of the 24/25 campaign, it means Gyokeres has now scored in six consecutive Nations League matches - becoming the first player in the competition’s history, albeit brief, to achieve such a feat.

Gyokeres, who had a goal in the first half on Friday evening disallowed, got his moment just after the hour mark in Zenica as he held off a challenge before lashing the ball into the roof of the net.

While it was not enough to maintain Sweden’s perfect start in League B, Group 4, Graham Potter was happy to take a point.

"I'm very happy with the team's performance, really," Potter told reporters. "I thought we were outstanding considering what we've had to go through and considering where we are and the atmosphere around the match.

“Our lead was well deserved, but we needed a second goal."

Gyokeres, meanwhile, will hope to score for a seventh Nations League game in a row when Sweden face Romania again early next week before returning to Arsenal where he could be set for a key role amid injuries to Kai Havertz and Christos Tzolis during the international break.
