Kosovo was the surprise of the day. They scored twice in the first half to win the match 2-0. Sweden dominated possession, while Kosovo made the most effective attacks.
Sweden never lose against Kosovo, there must be something happen with them.

Sweden players are mostly playing in England and German, yet they got beaten by unknown players who played in unknown leagues too.

Another key match was the 4-5 draw between Israel and Italy.

I don't remember Italy conceding so many goals recently.

The biggest factor, of course, was that both goals were own goals. Locatelli and Bastoni were a surprise 😂
This is very important match for both of them, since Italy won in this match, the chance they will qualify become high because they still have 4 match and 2 of them are against weak teams. While Israel, only have 3 match and only one match is weak team.

If Israel want to qualify, they need to win rest of the match and hoping Italy to lose one match, not to mention point margin do matters.
