Live comments

  • 0' - We are underway at . The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' - Iceland is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 10' - It looks like no one’s ball. Nigeria is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 15' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Nigeria that had 4 games and scored 4 goals.
  • 20' - Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 25' - Iceland seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 30' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ari Skulason made 30 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 35' - Victor Moses needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 40' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 44' - It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Brian Idowu.
  • 46' - Another substitution for Nigeria to replace Brian Idowu by Tyronne Ebuehi on 46 minute.
  • 49' - GOAL! Ahmed Musa scores on 49. Assisted by Victor Moses
  • 54' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 59' - It’s high time Heimir Hallgrimsson made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 64' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Gylfi Þor Sigurðsson, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 65' - The supporters are chanting for Sverrir Ingi Ingason. He replaces Ragnar Sigurðsson on 65 minute.
  • 70' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 71' - It is a substitution in Iceland team. Jon Daði Boðvarsson is replaced by Bjorn Sigurðarson on 71 minute.
  • 75' - Goal! Ahmed Musa scores his 4 goal in 4 matches.
  • 80' - 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 Kelechi Iheanacho suffering a number of foals already.
  • 85' - Nigeria manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Odion Ighalo is hanging Kelechi Iheanacho on the field on 85 minute.
  • 87' - Ari Freyr Skulason is replacing Aron Einar Gunnarsson for the Iceland side.
  • 90' - Alex Iwobi is replacing Oghenekaro Etebo for the Nigeria side.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-0.
