***World Cup 2018 - Nigeria v Iceland***

Game two of three for the day.

 

Nigeria were hapless against Croatia and should have lost the game by more.

 

Iceland were magnificent against Argentina and fully deserved their point.

 

Think Iceland will win this one and heap all the pressure on to Messi &co.

Both teams will be desperate for the win after last nights result.

 

A draw will hand Argentina a big lifeline.

 

Fancy Iceland to edge it by the odd goal.

I think a win for Nigeria would be the better result for Argentina. Then it is in their hands to score enough to doISH second on goal difference assuming Iceland beat Croatia in the final games

Rather dull first half again. Iceland look the better of the two though kinda hope they do it as that will really bugger Argentina for the last game

This is a familiar tale so far. Teams which thrive on being the underdog rarely know how to make the play in games they're expected to win. Iceland aren't enjoying the hot conditions much either. It's slowing them down. 

 

Wales only drew with Mexico in 1958, then roused themselves for their last group game against Sweden. Northern Ireland only drew with Honduras in 1982, then roused themselves to amazingly beat hosts Spain. Ireland only drew with Egypt in 1990, then roused themselves for their last group game against Holland. Greece lost to Russia in 2004... then worked an utter miracle. I expected Iceland to struggle today; but I also think they'll ultimately get through.

The Iceland story is a great one. What they have achieved is fantastic. But I'm bored of the thunderclap now and I hope they go out in the group stages.

They play to their strengths which is fair enough. Brutal to watch though.

Not the football I'm particularly keen to watch, that's for sure.
