Live comments

  • 0' - The game is set. Iceland kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' - Ragnar Sigurðsson has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 10' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 15' - Nigeria started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 15.
  • 20' - 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.
  • 25' - 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.
  • 30' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Horður Magnusson made 308 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 35' - Iceland is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 40' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 44' - It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Brian Idowu.
  • 46' - Another change for Nigeria made on 46 minute. Brian Idowu leaves to be changed by Tyronne Ebuehi.
  • 49' - Goal! Ahmed Musa scores his 4 goal in 4 matches.
  • 54' - 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.
  • 59' - Iceland is showing some good football. However, Iceland are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 64' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 65' - Sverrir Ingi Ingason has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ragnar Sigurðsson on 65 minute.
  • 70' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Jon Daði Boðvarsson, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 71' - Another substitution for Iceland to replace Jon Daði Boðvarsson by Bjorn Sigurðarson on 71 minute.
  • 75' - Goal! Ahmed Musa scores his 4 goal in 4 matches.
  • 80' - Francis Uzoho needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 85' - Time for substitution for Nigeria. Kelechi Iheanacho is replaced by Odion Ighalo.
  • 87' - Another substitution for Iceland to replace Aron Einar Gunnarsson by Ari Freyr Skulason on 87 minute.
  • 90' - The whistle greets Oghenekaro Etebo as he departs to be replaced by Alex Iwobi.
