Different Nigeria team to their first match.
Iceland paying the price for not going for it earlier in the game.
Mind you, the temperature definitely suiting one team more than the other.

Playing like they have done so far and how the Nigerians have done so far, absolutely no chance.

That's because they take on their father's name.

Eidur Gudjohnsson, if he names his son Frank, his son will be called Frank Eidursson

Women are 'dottir'
Good explanation. Sadly, Eiður is not a good example! His last name is a family name, Guðjohnsen, his father is Arnór Guðjohnsen.

Musa’s first goal is up there in my top 4 or 5 tournament goals so far.

Others includes Modric against the Argies and Coutinho in Brazil’s opening game (and some others I need to ponder over).

Well I missed the first half but the second was entertaining. Good run for the second goal even if the defending was poor.
