Arsenal target Alexander Isak was in action for Sweden against Spain on Monday night – and Gunners fans loved what they saw.

Spain had plenty of the ball but just couldn’t find a way past Sweden, with the two sides playing out a 0-0 draw in Seville.

He may not have got himself on the scoresheet, but Isak can certainly be happy with his performance on the night…

How did Isak perform against Spain?

Isak went close with a first-half effort, as he shrugged off Spanish defenders before his short cannoned off Marcos Llorente, hit the post and somehow stayed out.

The Real Sociedad star showed his class against three Spain defenders, jinking past two and holding off a third to give Marcus Berg a golden chance – but he missed.
