Live comments

  • 0' - In just a few seconds will turn into a battlefield for Nigeria and Iceland.
  • 5' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
  • 10' - 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.
  • 15' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Francis Uzoho, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 20' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Rurik Gislason made 101 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 25' - It looks surprising Iceland does not make any changes. Kenneth Omeruo has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 30' - 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.
  • 35' - It looks like no one’s ball. Iceland is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 40' - It’s high time Gernot Rohr made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 44' - A meaty challenge results in booking for Brian Idowu on 44.
  • 46' - Nigeria manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Tyronne Ebuehi is hanging Brian Idowu on the field on 46 minute.
  • 49' - Ahmed Musa puts Nigeria on the lead.
  • 54' - Iceland started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 54.
  • 59' - 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.
  • 64' - John Obi Mikel needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 65' - Another change for Iceland made on 65 minute. Ragnar Sigurðsson leaves to be changed by Sverrir Ingi Ingason.
  • 70' - 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 Hannes Þor Halldorsson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 71' - Another substitution for Iceland to replace Jon Daði Boðvarsson by Bjorn Sigurðarson on 71 minute.
  • 75' - Ahmed Musa with the second goal in the match!
  • 80' - Nigeria is showing some good football. However, Nigeria are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 85' - The Nigeria manager makes a substitution. Kelechi Iheanacho departs to be replaced by Odion Ighalo.
  • 87' - Time for substitution for Iceland. Aron Einar Gunnarsson is replaced by Ari Freyr Skulason.
  • 90' - Alex Iwobi is replacing Oghenekaro Etebo for the Nigeria side.
  • Full Time. Nigeria beats Iceland
