The Iceland squad for the match against the Israeli national team has been announced

Just before the match against the Israeli national team on Thursday at 21:45 as part of the semi-finals of the Euro promotion playoff, Iceland published its squad for the meetings against Alon Hazan’s boys.

As you remember, the meeting will be a direct battle for qualifying for the playoff finals of the Nations League, as it is one game away from qualifying for the first time in the history of the country for the prestigious national team tournament of the continent this summer in Germany.

The one who was called to the squad of Israel’s rival is its big star, Albert Gudmundsson, who netted ten goals in the Italian league this season. The Genoa player was not part of the national team for a long time, this after a complaint for rape was filed against him. Now he’s coming back just in time for Iceland.

On the other hand, the one who is not called to the squad is Iceland’s biggest star, some would say in the country’s history, Gylfi Sigurdsson. Iceland’s all-time top scorer was disappointed and said: “I am very disappointed, I continued to play football so that I could be part of the team. I have a few minor injuries, but feel good and I would trust myself to be in the squad.”

Herrera also responded to this by saying: “The fact that he doesn’t like it, that’s a good thing, I’m happy about that. I hope he can be a part of the team in the future, but right now he just came back from an injury and it’s not fair to the others if he’s a part and they’re not.”

Iceland’s full squad: Elias Olafsson, Hakon Valdimarsson, Patrik Gunnarsson, Gudmundur Borrairsson, Kolbijn Pinsson, Daniel Gartarsson, Sverir Ingasson, Hjorter Hermansson, Gudlaugur Falsson, Alphonse Sampstad, Johan Gudmonsson, Issac Johansson, Enror Troustasson, Haakon Haraldsson, Christian Helinsson, John Borsteinsson, Michael Allertsson, Michael Andersson, Arnor Sigurdsson, Willum Willomsson, Uri Oscarsson, Andri Gudionsen, Alfred Finnbogsson and Albert Gudmundsson.
