In the latest round of football friendlies it was the turn of Andorra to host Iceland. Unfortunately for Andorra, yesterday they were beaten 2-0 by the visiting team at the Estadi Comunal d’Andorra la Vella.
Iceland sunk Andorra with a goal in each half, the first on 13 minutes by Jóhann Berg Guðmundsson and the second on 59 minutes from Rúnar Már Sigurjónsson.
The next fixture for Andorra is a World Cup qualifier at home against Turkey on 22nd March 2013 where they will be hoping to score the first points of their qualifying campaign.
