Iceland hope to stop the charge of Hungary in Group E and help their own trusts of advancement. Vidir Sigurdsson (Iceland) and Thomasz Mortimer (Hungary) see the match.
What's in question?
Vidir Sigurdsson: After the first round of results in Group F, the conflict amongst Iceland and Hungary in Marseille on Saturday tackles significantly more essentialness than conceived before the opposition. Few anticipated that the Hungarians would begin this match with three focuses and Iceland with one, yet now the weight is on to qualify. Iceland's 1-1 draw against Portugal was charged as the most critical ever, yet a win over Hungary may knock it down to second place on the rundown.
Thomasz Mortimer: Hungary head into the amusement knowing a draw will most likely be sufficient to take them through to the round of 16, and they absolutely won't be low on certainty after that sublime win over Austria on Tuesday evening. The Hungarian fans and media saw the Iceland diversion pre-competition as an exceptionally winnable tie, yet the Magyar group will need to make preparations for lack of concern against what is an extremely solid Icelandic unit. Iceland know they have to win in the event that they are to place themselves in the driving seat in Group F and they'll trust Hungary will be their most straightforward amusement remaining. In any case, if Hungary can perform with the same verve, the same hostility and the same flexibility that they played with on Tuesday, they could see themselves fitting the bill for the Round of 16 come Saturday evening.
Key Battle
Versus: Gylfi Sigurdsson versus Zoltan Gera
Sigurdsson will be one of Iceland's key players in a match where the group will keep the ball substantially more, and assault all the more regularly, than they oversaw against Portugal in the first round. Sigurdsson was included in the greater part of Iceland's objectives in the capability gather and will in all probability conflict amidst midfield with the accomplished Gera who now controls the Hungarian group from somewhere down in midfield. Both are exceptionally sharp players; Sigurdsson may have 10 years less in his legs, yet Gera has all the experience to close him down with the assistance of his persevering buddies.
TM: Adam Nagy versus Gylfi Sigurdsson
Adam Nagy was awesome against Austria, lifting the ball up from profound and turning into the genuine metronome of the Hungary side; he finished 41 of 42 passes. Yet, he was additionally incredible protectively, as well, making five handles and two capture attempts, and he'll must be that great against the inconsistent ability of Gylfi Sigurdsson. Sigurdsson is outstanding at discovering space, and can open up guards in a moment, while likewise having a truly venomous shot. On the off chance that the unpracticed Nagy doesn't get to grasps with Sigurdsson early, and he's permitted an excess of space in the middle of the posts of the objective, Hungary could be stuck in an unfortunate situation.
Star man
Versus: Hannes Thor Halldorsson
Iceland's goalkeeper was remarkable in the capability rounds, surrendering three objectives in the initial eight matches to help them bond their place in the finals. Halldorsson endured a genuine shoulder damage in October and required an operation which put his appearance for the finals in France in extreme uncertainty, yet his restoration was effective. Halldorsson just began the remainder of Iceland's nine readiness matches before the opposition, however was prepared when required against Portugal and awed with 10 spares, including a bewildering one from Nani in the main half.
TM: Laszlo Kleinheisler
Laszlo Kleinheisler got the man of the match grant in Tuesday's diversion and he's liable to be the man Hungary swing to again in this amusement, particularly if Balazs Dzsudzsak is as inadequate as he was against Austria. Kleinheisler was a danger all amusement with his jinky, eccentric running and shrewd exchanges, and if his last ball is more on point than it was on Tuesday, he'll be a genuine risk. The 22-year-old tired towards the end of the match against the Austrians, yet his play to set up Adam Szalai for his objective demonstrates to you what the youthful Werder Bremen man is about.
Forecast
