Nigeria vs Iceland: TV channel, live stream, squad news & preview

Iceland are a confident team heading into their Group D clash against Nigeria on Friday after their impressive performance against Argentina

Iceland stunned the world when they held Argentina to a 1-1 draw, and will be looking to capitalise on their confidence as they head into their second World Cup fixture against Nigeria at Volgograd Arena on Friday June 22.

Goalkeeper Hannes Thor Halldorsson saved a penalty taken by Lionel Messi that would have put Argentina up 2-1 at the break, and have an arguably better chance than the South Americans of making the last 16 phase of the competition.
