Dejan Kulusevski was once again creating goals as he skippered Sweden to another win in the UEFA Nations League as they defeated Estonia 3-0 on Monday night.

Wearing the captain's armband for the fourth consecutive match, Deki continued his unbeaten start to life as Sweden's interim skipper as he picked up his third win from his four matches (one draw) and continued to create for country.

Starting once more and claiming the 43rd international cap of his career so far, having been unlucky not be officially given an assist for Yasin Ayari's opener in Friday's 2-2 draw with Slovakia, the forward made no mistake with his pass from the left-hand side of the box to set up Viktor Gyokeres in the 66th minute for Sweden's third.

It marks a stark change in Sweden's fortunes after they had lost three of their previous four before Deki took on the captain's armband.

They now top the UEFA Nations League League C Group 1 table, edging Slovakia on goal difference.
