Match

Keflavik out of the cup

Valur ended it 1‑0. The season narrows to the league now, and everyone in the ground knew it before the final whistle.

Market

Ásgeir Páll Magnússon asks to leave Keflavik

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Player ratings

Axel Ingi Jóhannesson beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 21. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Squad

Nacho Heras falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Transfer targets

Keflavik rebuffed over Emil Atlason

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Stjarnan have kept their man, and Keflavik go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad

A falling-out at Keflavik

Erik Tobias Sandberg and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The dugout

No hiding place for Sindri Snær Magnússon

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Sindri Snær Magnússon, and the manager let it.

Player ratings

Stefan Alexander Ljubičić takes the honours

Marked 7.90 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Keflavik had the best player on the pitch.

Squad

8 new faces, and Keflavik are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

In brief
