Viktor Gyokeres found the back of the net once more for Sweden, slotting home their third goal against Poland.
The Arsenal striker made the most of his international break, delivering a potent reminder of his lethal finishing ability.
Gyokeres Strikes Again for Sweden
With striking partner Alexander Isak absent, Gyokeres led the Swedish attack in their UEFA Nations League match against Poland.
Benjamin Nygren opened the scoring, and Yasin Ayari restored Sweden’s lead after Sebastian Szymański’s equalizer, before Gyokeres sealed the result.
In the 72nd minute, the 28-year-old forward showcased brilliant movement and positioning to meet a sublime cross with a first-time volley into the net.
Look at this Gyokeres goal for Sweden against Poland.
It says alot about Arsenal. If Saka can find him like Wålemark did, he would’ve been scoring more goals.
Btw, that’s Saka’s trademark kind of cross before you say something else. pic.twitter.com/I5eQAg5Dp8

After also scoring against Romania, Gyokeres concluded the international window with two goals in two matches, showcasing his razor-sharp instincts as Sweden’s primary threat.
Gyokeres Sends a Clear Message to Mikel Arteta
Gyokeres’ impressive international form serves as a clear message to Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta.
After a solid debut campaign that yielded 21 goals across all competitions, the striker has endured a frustrating start to the new domestic season.
Restricted mostly to late substitute appearances in recent Premier League and Champions League fixtures, Gyokeres has temporarily dropped down the pecking order at the Emirates Stadium.
His lack of starting minutes has inevitably fueled media speculation regarding his long-term role at the club.
However, by delivering decisive performances on the international stage, Gyokeres has given Arteta plenty to consider ahead of Arsenal’s demanding autumn schedule.
The powerful frontman will hope his international heroics earn him a place back in the Gunners’ starting XI when club football resumes.
