Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Stefan Alexander Ljubicic's 23rd-minute strike was enough for Keflavík IF to edge ÍBV Vestmannaeyjar 1-0 in the Urvalsdeild, with Ari Petersen's defiant goalkeeping keeping the visitors in it until the final whistle. The early goal, assisted by Eidur Orri Ragnarsson, set the tone for a contest that never quite caught fire after that.

The decisive moment arrived just past the twenty-minute mark when Ragnarsson slipped Ljubicic through, and the forward finished coolly to give the home side the lead. Muhamed Alghoul went into the book four minutes later for a late challenge, while Felix Örn Friðriksson saw yellow late on as ÍBV pushed for an equaliser that never materialised.

On the numbers, ÍBV dominated possession with 62% and fired 18 shots to Keflavík's 14, yet the hosts edged corners nine to six. The second half told the real story: ÍBV held 77% of the ball but could not break through. Petersen earned his 8.8 rating between the sticks, a goalkeeper performance that kept the scoreline respectable. CheckLive's model clearly favoured Keflavík IF, and the result confirmed that read.
