Keflavík IF 3:2 KR Reykjavík — Match Report

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Marin Mudražija scored twice as Keflavík IF came from behind to beat KR Reykjavík 3-2, and the win sets up a home fixture against Fram Reykjavík on 6 July. It was a frantic, open contest in the Urvalsdeild, with the lead changing hands four times before Alpha Bedor Conteh’s late header settled it.

The match exploded into life inside 11 minutes: Arnór Traustason put KR Reykjavík ahead in the 10th minute from Aron Sigurðarson’s pass, only for Mudražija to equalise a minute later with Muhamed Alghoul’s assistance. Mudražija then struck again in the 52nd minute, this time set up by Sindri Snær Magnússon, but Eidur Gauti Saebjornsson restored parity three minutes later with Traustason again providing the assist. The decisive moment came in the 89th minute when Conteh netted unassisted.

Despite the result, KR Reykjavík were the better side in both halves, controlling possession and creating more chances. CheckLive's model clearly favoured KR Reykjavík, but the outcome did not confirm that prediction; the live signals backing KR at short odds were also lost. Keflavík now host Fram Reykjavík on 6 July.
