However, they needed Caoimhin Kelleher’s second-half penalty save to preserve their clean sheet, while Finland also hit the woodwork. Hallgrimsson said: “We are not jumping for joy today, I think we could have done much better than we did. It’s good to have a win for the spirit and I think these players need to experience that as often as they can. His all-round performance was really good and I’m so happy, really happy with him. We had good chances, missed a penalty, a couple of shots against the post and it’s small margins which decides it today.”
