  • 10' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Kenneth Omeruo, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 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' - 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.
  • 25' - Ari Skulason has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 30' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 35' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 40' - Iceland is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 44' - Nigeria receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 44.
  • 46' - The Nigeria manager makes a substitution. Brian Idowu departs to be replaced by Tyronne Ebuehi.
  • 49' - What a strike from Ahmed Musa! The score is 1-0.
  • 54' - It’s high time Gernot Rohr made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 59' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 64' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ragnar Sigurðsson made 101 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 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 Rurik Gislason suffering a number of foals already.
  • 71' - Time for substitution for Iceland. Jon Daði Boðvarsson is replaced by Bjorn Sigurðarson.
  • 75' - Goal! Ahmed Musa scores his 4 goal in 4 matches.
