Sweden in crisis dismissed national team coach Yondal Thomason in a surprise move. On the 14th, the Swedish Football Association announced its separation from coach Thomason.
Sweden, ranked 32nd in the FIFA rankings, lost 0-1 in the fourth Group B match of the 2026 North-China World Cup European qualifying round against 90th-ranked Kosovo at Gothenburg Uleby Stadium in Sweden.
Sweden is at the bottom of Group B with only one draw and three losses (one point) in four games. In the European qualifying round for the North-China World Cup, the first place in 12 groups will go straight to the finals. Among the 12 countries ranked second in the group and below the third in the group, the top four countries in the 2024-2025 UEFA Nations League will be divided into four groups, with four teams each playing a tournament-style playoff to determine the remaining four ticket owners to North Korea, China and the U.S.
The top spot in Group B is Switzerland with 10 points (3 wins and 1 draw). Kosovo is in second place with seven points (2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss). Sweden will play Switzerland next month and Slovenia (3 points, 3 draws, 1 loss).
There is no hope for the World Cup. Sweden has qualified for 12 World Cup finals. He is a Nordic powerhouse who also won the runner-up prize at the 1958 tournament held in his country. At the 2018 Russia competition, it reached the quarterfinals. However, he failed to advance to the finals at the 2022 Qatar Games and is now on the verge of failing to advance to the finals for the second consecutive time.

Isaac moved to Liverpool after a sharp conflict with Newcastle United, and the transfer fee was a whopping 125 million pounds (about 238 billion won). The transfer fee for Jockeres is also heard 'billion' Arsenal paid 63.5 million euros (about 105 billion won) in basic transfer fee and 10 million euros (about 16.5 billion won) in option.
However, their form for the Swedish national team was the worst. Sweden scored just two goals in four Group B matches. In particular, Isaac only had 31 touches, the fewest in the game.
After losing to Kosovo, Thomason was "not good enough, it's a terrible result. It really hurts. We forgot how to score a goal and we don't know why." It was his last remark when he took the helm of the Swedish national team in March last year.
Lukas Beribal (Tottenham) of Sweden also started but was replaced at half-time.
