Cup progress for Vikingur
A 1‑0 win over Breidablik, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Nobody could get near Sveinn Margeir Hauksson
Successful dribbles: 29. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Valur come back empty-handed
The bid was some way short and Vikingur did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Gylfi Sigurðsson in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Vikingur this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Words at Vikingur training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Elías Már Ómarsson is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

David Jablonský gets it from the manager
“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

This league is too small for Boris Palacios
He is doing things on a Saturday afternoon that nobody around him can answer, which is flattering for about one season and a problem after that. Vikingur will not keep him by pretending otherwise.

Erlingur Agnarsson stands above it all
Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.65 on the card, and the Vikingur support went home talking about one name.
Match22 Aug 2026
Vikingur and IBV cancel each other out
Nil-nil, and few chances worth the name. IBV came to defend and left with exactly what they came for.
