This was just a tough match. Away against probably the biggest title challenger of this season. We started really weak, which resulted in an early goal for Valur after 9 minutes. When Valur missed a penalty after half an hour, we could get some more ball possession and try to attack every now and then. Valur was the better side almost every minute of the game but we didn't give many goal opportunities to Valur. When we scored the 3-2 in the 90th minute, I decided to put everyone up front but unfortunately it couldn't make a difference and an expected loss is the result. I think my boys worked hard against a team which is a couple of times better. We ended with 48% ball possession and 60% passes completed.

Valur favourites for Fjölnir clash.
Valur:
1-2 (Fav) - Draw: 13-5 - Fjölnir: 9-2
Valur are clear
favourites in this home encounter but will still have to make sure they do a professional job against newly-promoted Fjölnir, according to Sky Bet.
Attention turns to Laugardalsvöllur.
I have been approached by a journalist from a national newspaper. Both clubs will be doing everything they can to ensure victory. Am I
confident ahead of the upcoming tie? I have indicated that I feel Valur pose just
as much of a threat as any other team.
Fjölnir defeated.
Despite battling hard, Fjölnir were
unable to prevent a superior Valur side coming away from Laugardalsvöllur with a
3-2 victory.
