Nigeria vs Iceland LIVE stream: How to watch World Cup match online and on TV
NIGERIA VS ICELAND live stream - here’s how to watch the World Cup online and on TV.
Nigeria take on Iceland this afternoon looking to bounce back from their 2-0 defeat to Croatia last time out.
With Croatia already through following their shock win over Argentina last night, it leaves a very open playing field for today’s teams to sneak their way into the knockout stages.
Nigeria and Iceland have only previously met each other once, when Iceland triumphed 3-0 in a 1981 friendly.
Iceland will be keen to build on their impressive showing last time out when they held Lionel Messi’s Argentina to a draw.
Iceland boss Heimir Hallgrimsson expects the Super Eagles to come out fighting this afternoon.
"This is a must-win game for Nigeria and that makes it a little bit psychologically different, they have to win," he said.
“This group is going to be decided in the last minutes, in the last game. It's going to be down to some margins, a set piece, a goal in injury time. This is how this group is going to be played."

World Cup TV channels and live streams
TV coverage of the World Cup will be split between ITV and BBC this year.
You can tune in on your TV or online via ITV's app.
Now named ITV Hub, this app is available on both Apple iPhone, iPad and most Android devices and is free to download.
Users can also tune in via Amazon Fire TV, YouView, BT Vision, Sky HD, Sky Q, Samsung TV, NOW TV, Freeview Play and Virgin Media.
Similarly, games on BBC can be watched on BBC iPlayer on the aforementioned platforms.
It's worth noting that you'll need a valid TV Licence if you watch or record live programmes as it is a criminal offence in the UK to watch “live” television without a TV licence.
And if you're away from home and don't have a decent wifi connection – you might want to avoid watching an entire match on your smartphone.
A full football game streamed to your smartphone or tablet will use around 700MB of data.
You’ll also need a TV Licence to download or watch BBC programmes on iPlayer. This applies to any device you use.
