  • 0' - The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Nigeria is hosting Iceland for another epic battle.
  • 5' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sverrir Ingi Ingason made 101 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 10' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 15' - 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.
  • 20' - The travelling Iceland supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 25' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
  • 30' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Nigeria needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 35' - Nigeria is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 40' - While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 44' - It’s a booking for Nigeria player. Brian Idowu gets a Yellow card.
  • 46' - It is a substitution in Nigeria team. Brian Idowu is replaced by Tyronne Ebuehi on 46 minute.
  • 49' - Ahmed Musa puts Nigeria on the lead.
  • 54' - Kenneth Omeruo has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 27 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 59' - 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 Oghenekaro Etebo suffering a number of foals already.
  • 64' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 65' - Time for substitution for Iceland. Ragnar Sigurðsson is replaced by Sverrir Ingi Ingason.
  • 70' - It’s high time Gernot Rohr made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 71' - Bjorn Sigurðarson is replacing Jon Daði Boðvarsson for the Iceland side.
  • 75' - What a strike from Ahmed Musa! The score is 2-0.
  • 80' - Hannes Þor Halldorsson needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 85' - The supporters are chanting for Odion Ighalo. He replaces Kelechi Iheanacho on 85 minute.
  • 87' - Ari Freyr Skulason is replacing Aron Einar Gunnarsson for the Iceland side.
  • 90' - The Nigeria manager makes a substitution. Oghenekaro Etebo departs to be replaced by Alex Iwobi.
