Former Everton and Tottenham midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson scores his first Iceland goal in three years just two months after making his first competitive appearance since 2021

Former Premier League star Gylfi Sigurdsson scored his first international goal in three years as Iceland thrashed Liechtenstein on Monday night.

The 34-year-old opened the scoring from the spot 22 minutes into the game and added a second shortly after half-time as Iceland ran out 4-0 winners in Reykjavik.

The goals were Sigurdsson's first for the national team since he scored in a 2-1 defeat against Hungary in the final of the Euro 2020 qualifier play-offs in November 2020.

The former Tottenham and Everton midfielder captained Iceland against Denmark in a Nations League fixture three days later in what would prove to be his last international appearance in three years.
