Match report
Iceland won 5-0 in Plovdiv, with Andri Guðjohnsen scoring three and the visitors turning a 2-0 half-time lead into a one-sided result after the break.
Guðjohnsen converted a penalty in the 17th minute to make it 1-0. Orri Steinn Óskarsson doubled the lead on 21 minutes, finishing from Hörður Magnússon, who had come on in the 9th minute. It was 2-0 at half-time.
Bulgaria pulled one back in the 52nd minute through an own goal by Emil Tsenov to make it 2-1, but Iceland soon took control again. Guðjohnsen scored again on 68 minutes from Hákon Arnar Haraldsson's assist to make it 3-1, then claimed his hat-trick on 79 minutes to make it 4-1. Iceland had already changed things with a substitution on 71 minutes, when Gylfi Sigurðsson came on for Ísak Bergmann Jóhannesson, and another on 72 minutes, when Aron Gunnarsson replaced Daniel Leo Gretarsson. Bulgaria made two changes on 85 minutes, with Ivajlo Čočev and Georgi Antoanov Lazarov coming on, but the game was long settled by then.
Bulgaria had 52% of the possession and 541 passes to Iceland's 504, while the home side also had more corners, 4-1, and more offsides, 2-1. Iceland finished with the better xG, 2.84 to 1.01, and the extra goals to match.
Hörður Magnússon was booked in the 39th minute and Bulgaria's Kristiyan Balov in first-half stoppage time. Andrian Kraev was booked on 55 minutes, while Hákon Arnar Haraldsson went into the referee's notebook on 66 minutes.
