B68 claimed a 2-1 victory over 07 Vestur in the Meistaradeildin regular season on Sunday. The result keeps both sides in the lower half of the table, with the hosts climbing to within two points of their visitors.
C. Gedsted opened the scoring in the 38th minute, giving B68 the lead they would need to hold onto. 07 Vestur responded through J. Goronjic, who equalised in the 85th minute after a series of substitutions had shifted the tempo. L. Lespinasse then struck in stoppage time, 90+3, to complete the turnaround.
There were five bookings across the match, spread across both sides. J. Prior went off with a yellow just before half-time, followed by P. Mensah and M. Beyai in the second half. M. Jacobsen received his card late on. Substitutions included M. Non, D. Samuelsen, J. Nordendal, and J. van Der Heyden.
Both teams arrived with worrying recent form. B68 had lost four consecutive matches, including heavy defeats to Skalafell and AB. 07 Vestur had also struggled, losing 1-4 to HB and drawing with weaker opposition before their win against AB.
B68 remain 10th on 16 points after 21 games, while 07 Vestur sit 9th with 18 points. Neither side has much room to manoeuvre in a season where 13 defeats each suggests both have been inconsistent. The result does not change the picture dramatically, but it extends 07 Vestur's winless run against B68 in recent meetings.
