However, there was a great loss before their knockout match against France at the FIFA World Cup 2026. Defender Isak Heinz of the national football team of Sweden will not be able to play in the rest of the tournament due to a hamstring injury.

Isak was injured during Sweden's 1-1 draw against Japan on Thursday. The game was crucial in ensuring that Sweden qualified for the Round of 32 after finishing among the eight best third-place teams.

This injury was reported by the Swedish Football Association (SvFF), which confirmed that Isak would miss the rest of the World Cup tournament and begin his rehabilitation process in his club.

Sweden national team doctor Jonas Werner issued an official statement, stating that Isak has suffered a serious injury to his left hamstring, which will prevent him from participating in the upcoming World Cup matches. He is returning to his club. This injury means he will be completely out of action for some time. The star defender's absence will force Sweden to make major changes to their backline for the must-win knockout match against France.
