Live comments

  • 0' - KICK OFF: Nigeria gets underway.
  • 5' - 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.
  • 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' - 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.
  • 20' - Ragnar Sigurðsson needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 25' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 30' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 35' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 40' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Jon Daði Boðvarsson, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 44' - A meaty challenge results in booking for Brian Idowu on 44.
  • 46' - Tyronne Ebuehi has so much to prove this time. He replaces Brian Idowu on 46 minute.
  • 49' - What a strike from Ahmed Musa! The score is 1-0.
  • 54' - Nigeria is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 59' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 64' - Iceland started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 64.
  • 65' - Iceland manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Sverrir Ingi Ingason is hanging Ragnar Sigurðsson on the field on 65 minute.
  • 70' - 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.
  • 71' - Another substitution for Iceland to replace Jon Daði Boðvarsson by Bjorn Sigurðarson on 71 minute.
  • 75' - GOAL! Ahmed Musa scores on 75. Assisted by Kenneth Omeruo
  • 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 William Troost-Ekong suffering a number of foals already.
  • 85' - Another change for Nigeria made on 85 minute. Kelechi Iheanacho leaves to be changed by Odion Ighalo.
  • 87' - Another change for Iceland made on 87 minute. Aron Einar Gunnarsson leaves to be changed by Ari Freyr Skulason.
