Nigeria – Iceland World Cup Tips
The second day of the World Cup is called to give verdicts that may now be decisive. The many surprises of the first day have also created a delicate situation for not a few favorites on the eve and opened the way to teams that should have been a side, at least in the forecasts.
Among the latter there is also Iceland, which has stopped Argentina creating an unexpected situation in the framework of Group D. The Nordic team is now called to face Nigeria, which in turn was defeated in the race with Croatia.
The race, which will take place at the Volgograd Arena, boasts only one precedent, dating back to 1981, when Iceland won 3-0 against a team that had not yet reached its best levels.
In the opening match against Croatia, the African team was seriously disappointed. In a match without great impetus, Moses and his companions never managed to put the opposing defense in difficulty, paying at the end the ingenuity of a defense that seemed quite vague.
Now Nigeria is no longer an alternative, finding itself forced to win against a formation that has already amply demonstrated in the last few years that it has an absolutely enviable gaming organization. A task therefore quite complicated.
Probable Training
Uzoho; Shehu, Trost Ekong, Balogun, Idowu; Ndidi, Etebo; Moses, Obi Mikel, Iwobi; Ighalo.
Iceland approaches the second round of the World, causing not only great interest, but also considerable admiration. The great tactical discipline and the intensity with which the Nordic players are able to face every game has magnetized around the Icelanders the consent of all those who love to cheer for Davide on duty.
Now with Nigeria, however, it can be said that the part is perhaps the most difficult, because this time Iceland is presented with the favors of the prediction and with the need to win. Precisely for this it will be very interesting to see the approach of Finnbogason and companions to the race.
Probable Training
Halldorsson; Magnusson, R.Sigurdsson, Arnason, Saevarsson; Bjarnason, Hallfredsson, Gunnarsson, J.Gudmunsson; G. Sigurdsson, Finnbogason.
Prediction Nigeria – Iceland
The race between Nigeria and Brazil seems the classic game open to any solution. If Nigeria would perhaps have more technical quality, Iceland can however boast the compactness that too often lacks in the African teams. At the same time we must see if Iceland wants to try to make the race or prefer to wait for Nigeria to trigger its rapid reboots that also caused quite a few difficulties in the Argentine rearguard.
