  • 0' - The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Nigeria and Iceland has kicked off!
  • 5' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Jon Daði Boðvarsson, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 10' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 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' - The travelling Iceland supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 25' - 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.
  • 30' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 35' - 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.
  • 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' - Nigeria manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Tyronne Ebuehi is hanging Brian Idowu on the field on 46 minute.
  • 49' - Nigeria is taking the lead after the goal scored by Ahmed Musa on 49.
  • 54' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 54 minutes.
  • 59' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 64' - 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 Birkir Bjarnason suffering a number of foals already.
  • 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' - It looks surprising Iceland does not make any changes. Aron Einar Gunnarsson has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 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' - 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.
  • 85' - Odion Ighalo has so much to prove this time. He replaces Kelechi Iheanacho on 85 minute.
  • 87' - The supporters are chanting for Ari Freyr Skulason. He replaces Aron Einar Gunnarsson on 87 minute.
  • 90' - Nigeria manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Alex Iwobi is hanging Oghenekaro Etebo on the field on 90 minute.
  • The final score is 2-0.
