Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Iceland to score. At the same time, Hungary does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' Hungary is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 10' The 47-year-old Zoltan Gera has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 15' It looks surprising Iceland does not make any changes. Kolbeinn Sigþorsson has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 20' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 25' Birkir Bjarnason has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 13 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 30' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Bernd Storck will be considering his options from the bench.
- 35' Hungary started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 35.
- 40' Magnificent from Gylfi THor Sigurdsson! That is 30 goals in 329 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 42' Iceland receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 42.
- 47' Zoltan Stieber needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 52' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Roland Juhasz suffering a number of foals already.
- 57' Hungary are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 62' Iceland have won 11 goals from 101 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 65' Emil Hallfredsson has so much to prove this time. He replaces Aron Einar Gunnarsson on 65 minute.
- 67' Fresh legs for Hungary! Daniel Bode comes on to replace Tamas Priskin.
- 69' Another substitution for Iceland to replace Jon Dadi Bodvarsson by Alfred Finnbogason on 69 minute.
- 74' Hungary come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 75' Alfred Finnbogason was booked on 75.
- 77' Poor challenge from Birkir Mar Saevarsson. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 81' Hungary player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 83' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Laszlo Kleinheisler.
- 84' A change in the Hungary ranks — Roland Juhasz exits the field as Adam Szalai enters on 84.
- 88' Goal! Birkir Mar Saevarsson scores his 2 goal in 107 matches.
- 90' Adam Nagy has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 90.
- What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — Iceland 1-1 Hungary.
