  • 0' - We are underway at . The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' - It looks surprising Nigeria does not make any changes. William Troost-Ekong has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 10' - It looks like no one’s ball. Iceland is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 15' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 20' - It’s high time Heimir Hallgrimsson made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 25' - The travelling Iceland supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 30' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Gylfi Þor Sigurðsson, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 35' - 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.
  • 40' - 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 Aron Einar Gunnarsson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 44' - Nigeria player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 46' - It is a substitution in Nigeria team. Brian Idowu is replaced by Tyronne Ebuehi on 46 minute.

  • 54' - 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.
  • 59' - Victor Moses has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 22 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 64' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.

  • 70' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Birkir Bjarnason made 271 appearances and scored 8 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 71' - The whistle greets Jon Daði Boðvarsson as he departs to be replaced by Bjorn Sigurðarson.
  • 75' - Goal! Ahmed Musa scores his 4 goal in 4 matches.
