Match report
NSI Runavik secured a 4:2 victory over EB/Streymur in the Meistaradeildin regular season on Saturday, 16 August 2026. The result keeps the hosts top of the table with 44 points after 21 games, while the visitors remain eighth on 20 points. And here's the thing — you don't need to look far to see why the home side have pulled away so decisively this campaign.
M. Lindh opened the scoring in the third minute, and the momentum never really shifted. S. Skytte doubled the advantage before halftime with a well-taken goal in the 21st minute. H. Bo picked up a yellow card shortly after, and by then it was clear EB/Streymur were chasing the game rather than controlling it.
K. Eliasen added a third in the 63rd minute, but P. Knudsen pulled one back from the penalty spot seven minutes later. M. Geyti restored Runavik's two-goal cushion in the 80th minute, only for K. Olsen to grab a late consolation in stoppage time. To be fair, the visitors never stopped pushing forward despite the deficit.
The statistics tell a familiar story. Runavik dominated possession at 61 per cent and registered 106 attacks compared to 80 for their opponents. Yet EB/Streymur managed nine shots on target against seven, and took nine corners to the hosts' two. Many chances went begging — both sides could have had more, but the home side were more clinical when it mattered.
Runavik's recent form has been mixed, with a 2:2 draw against Lugano and a 4:0 win over Skála IF among their last five results. EB/Streymur have struggled more, losing three of their past five matches including defeats to 07 Vestur and Víkingur Gøta. By then, the gap between these two sides in the table was only going to widen.
