Two weeks ago, in a friendly match against Honduras, we played with a reserve team. The debut was made by: Nikulás Gissurarson (GK), Svavar Maríusson (DEF) and Þórarinn Sigmarsson (DEF). Our defense played a very good game. We were unlucky on the offensive. We had clearer chances to score than our opponent. I am glad that we avoided cards and injuries, and our young players had additional training.

A week ago against Kenya we played our strongest squad. We played a very good game and won 5:0. Rafn Dadason scored a hat-trick. 19yo Jón Bjarni Pálmason came on the pitch in the 76' and scored two goals! Tomorrow we will play against the leader of our group Croatia U21. We lost the first match 1:3, but I believe that this time luck will be on our side.

Despite the significant class difference, we played a very good match and lost slightly to the leader of our group. We played a different tactic in this match 5-2-1-2 (in the first match we played 4-3-1-2 and 4-2-2-2). Rafn Daðason scored 2 goals for our team. Unfortunately, our defensive play was not as effective as our offensive play. Next Saturday we will play a very important match against Chile U21. We are not favorites, but we will fight for a good result.

What a surprise! We beat the favorite and vice-leader of our group 5:1. Before the match I changed our tactics, adapted it to our opponent. After the first half we were losing 1:0. But the second half was a show of our strength! At the beginning of the second half, J. Hilmarsson and R. Daðason scored for our team. In the 77' of the match, J. Pálmason came on to replace J. Hilmarsson. J. Pálmason turned out to be the joker and the man of the match. For 13 minutes he scored a hat-trick! After losing the first match 0:3, we took revenge against our opponent and won 5:1! I'm very happy because we still have a chance for 3rd place in the group. We will play Morocco next week. We have to win!

Hilmarsson and Daðason scored hat-tricks, while our joker Pálmason scored two goals after entering the pitch in the 70'. After 9 rounds we already have 16 points.

Yesterday we won against USA U21 4:2 and moved up to 3rd place in the table! The favorite of the match was the USA, but we know how to beat the favorites :) The match was balanced, we had the same number of shots on goal. However, our attackers were more effective. Jón Ingi Hilmarsson scored twice, Rafn Daðason and Jón Bjarni Pálmason each scored one goal. Hrafnkell Þórvaldsson could not play in the match, having received a red card in the previous match. He was replaced from the first minutes by Jóhann Gunnar Adólfsson. Each of our players played a very good match. For eight players, it was a farewell match with the U21 team, because on Friday there will be a change in the age of the players.

Group H table looks very good for us.

1. Hrvatska U21 10 9-0-1 44-6 27

6. Al Maghrib U21 10 0-0-10 3-62 0

We repeated the greatest achievement in the history of Ísland U21. This is our common success. The best scorer of the whole group was our striker Rafn Daðason, who scored 17 goals. Jón Ingi Hilmarsson scored 11 goals and Jón Bjarni Pálmason scored 10 goals. It is worth noting that Jón Bjarni Pálmason is only 19 years old and came on the pitch from the bench in the end of matches.

It was my farewell match as the Ísland U21 coach. I'm glad we won and scored as many as 7 goals. The most effective was J. Pálmason, who scored 4 goals. E.Helgason scored two goals and A.Marksson one (his first international goal). Our goalkeeper didn't have to work in this match.

It was our best season. In 13 matches we won 7, drew 3 and lost 3. The goal balance is 46:16. We end the season with 1605.25 points in the ranking (52.place). Six seasons ago I started with 878.42 points (74.place). Thank you all, good luck to the new head coach of the Ísland U21 national team.
