Birkir Bjarnason - 5.5

A willing runner on the left of midfield but struggled to provide the width which would have stretched Nigeria's defence. 

Aron Gunnarsson - 6

A couple of cross-field passes got his team up the field. Did a lot of running and appeared to tire in the second half.

Gylfi Sigurdsson - 5.5

Set plays were always a threat. Missed the chance to put pressure on Nigeria when he skied a penalty over the bar.

Rurik Gislason - 6

Made some powerful runs with the ball at his feet, cutting in from the right. Couldn't produce a moment of quality in the final third though.

Jon Dadi Bodvarsson - 6

Worked hard and held the ball up well. Lacked options and support in the final third of the pitch.

Alfred Finnbogason - 5

Struggled to make an impact alongside Bodvarsson. Missed a decent chance from Sidurdsson's free-kick when the scores were goalless.

SUBS

Sverrir Ingi Ingason - 5

Replaced Bodvarsson with 19 minutes to go as the team pushed for a route back into the game.

Bjorn Bergmann Sigurdarson N/A

Came on with three minutes remaining.
