4-1, 33-year-old Arsenal veteran Xhaka scored and led the team to a victory over Sweden, infinitely closer to the World Cup
The Swiss team, ranked 17th in the world, ushered in the fifth round of the first group stage of the European preliminaries of the World Cup. Switzerland played at its home court against the Swedish team, ranked 40th in the world.

Switzerland leads Group B with 10 points before the game, while Sweden is at the bottom with 1 point. Switzerland leads the second-placed Kosovo team by 3 points before the game, and has the best hope of directly qualifying for the World Cup. However, Sweden simply failed and gave up the opportunity to compete for second place in the group, because Sweden can basically pass through the Europa League and directly enter the play-offs. Therefore, Sweden failed directly in the group stage when there was no hope of winning first place. Facing such a Swedish team, the Swiss team has great hope of winning. Therefore, before the game, more than 70% of the fans were full of confidence in Switzerland defeating Sweden at home.
In the 12th minute of the first half, Ndoye passed the ball and Embolo took the lead to help the Swiss team take the lead.
After 21 minutes, Nygren helped Sweden get a goal back.
In the 15th minute of the second half, the 33-year-old Arsenal veteran Xhaka scored a penalty shot to help Switzerland take the lead again.
After 15 minutes, Vargas made a wonderful pass, and Ndoye helped Switzerland expand its lead with another victory.
In the 94th minute, Muheim passed the ball and Manzambi helped Switzerland win another victory to seal the victory.
In the end, Switzerland defeated Sweden and was undefeated in five consecutive rounds of World Cup qualifying. After the game, Switzerland continued to rank first in Group B with 13 points, 3 points ahead of the second-placed Kosovo team. The Swiss team has a goal difference of 11 more than Kosovo, so Switzerland is infinitely close to the World Cup.
