FH Hafnarfjörður 0:0 Keflavík IF — Match Report

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Stefan Alexander Ljubicic struck early for Keflavík IF, but FH Hafnarfjörður came from behind to win 2-1 in the Urvalsdeild. Two goals in reply turned the contest on its head, with the home side banking all three points despite a slow start. It was a gritty comeback that owed much to persistence rather than polish.

The match swung decisively after Ljubicic’s 23rd-minute opener, only for Gils Gíslason to level within four minutes. Kjartan Kári Halldórsson then delivered the winner on 52 minutes, with bookings for Gíslason, Sindri Snær Magnússon and Adolf Daði Birgisson punctuating a scrappy but competitive affair. Keflavík led early but faded after the interval.

The numbers tell a tale of dominance without reward for the visitors, who had 53% possession yet managed only nine shots to FH’s twenty. The second half was one-way traffic as the hosts fired twelve attempts against Keflavík’s three. Ljubicic still earned a 7.8 rating for his forward display, the standout on a losing side. With no prediction on record and no next fixture to look toward, FH will simply savour the points.
