Sweden exits World Cup after 3-0 loss to France; Isak under scrutiny

Sweden was eliminated from the World Cup on Tuesday following a 3-0 defeat to France in the round of 32. Liverpool striker Alexander Isak faced intense criticism for his performance, receiving a low rating from a reporter who noted his lack of involvement. With this defeat, Isak joins four other Liverpool players who were also knocked out in a single day. Despite scoring once and assisting three times in the tournament, most of those contributions came against lesser teams. Isak's disappointing exit comes after a challenging season at Anfield, but he will have an opportunity for recovery before returning for club training later this month.
