Nations League Northern Ireland-Iceland Playoff Postponed Heavy Snow Reykjavik

News summary

The UEFA Women's Nations League promotion/relegation playoff second leg between Northern Ireland and Iceland, scheduled to be played in Reykjavik, has been postponed due to heavy snowfall covering the Laugardalsvöllur stadium. Over 36 centimeters of snow fell on the day of the match, making the field unplayable and forcing the Icelandic Football Association and UEFA to cancel the game. Iceland leads the playoff 2-0 after winning the first leg in Ballymena, with goals from Glodis Viggosdottir and Ingibjorg Sigurdardottir. Northern Ireland, coached by Tanya Oxtoby, aims to secure promotion to League A for the first time despite the setback. The match is expected to be rescheduled either for the following day or during the next international window at the end of November or early December. This postponement also affected broadcasting plans, with the game initially set to be streamed live on BBC platforms.
