Sweden boss Graham Potter joked about Manchester City’s 115 charges after a wave of injuries and illness left his squad depleted.

Liverpool striker Alexander Isak is among those unavailable, while five more players have withdrawn due to illness, forcing Sweden into emergency call-ups.

Potter joked that his team had suffered “a similar number” of withdrawals to City’s 115 charges.

The situation also leaves Liverpool sweating over their attacking options, with Cody Gakpo injured and Hugo Ekitike still recovering.
