Dramatic Late Win For Tosun's Turkey

Cenk Tosun grabbed an assist as Turkey came from two goals down to stun Sweden 3-2 in their UEFA Nations League clash in Stockholm.

Tosun set up substitute Emre Akbaba to level the score at 2-2 with two minutes of normal time remaining, before the same player clinched a dramatic victory in injury time.

Turkey went into the fixture having lost 2-1 to 2018 World Cup hosts Russia on home soil in their competition opener on Friday.

And Mircea Lucescu's side found themselves 2-0 down against the Swedes with 49 minutes played after Viktor Claesson added to Isaac Kiese Thelin’s first-half strike.
