Football. ua presents the announcement of the qualifying match of the 2018 World Cup for the ninth round in Group I between Turkey and Iceland.

If the Turkish team has not lost the desire to be in the final tournament of the 2018 World Cup, it will suit only the victory. Iceland, which has two more points in its assets, will arrange a draw in certain hands, although the northerners will also probably seek to win.

Turkey - Iceland Friday, October 6, 21:45. Eskisehir, Yeni Eskishehir. Arbitrator - Shimon Marciniak (Poland). Live broadcast on the channel Football 2 Duel at the stadium Yeni Eskishehir can be decisive in the fate of both teams. After losing the debut for himself as head coach of the Turkish national team against Ukraine, Mircea Lucescu was able to obtain a very important victory against Croatia. However, the former coach of Shakhtar will have to meet with Iceland outside the technical zone of his team, since he is disqualified for one match because of too emotional behavior in Kharkov, but he will surely deliver all his thoughts and ideas to the players long before the match.

Another loss for the hosts was the disqualification of the creative Milan midfielder Hakan Chalkhanoglu, who in the composition is likely to replace Emre Mor.

The composition of the Icelanders, who in case of victory will have a real chance for the first time in their history to make it to the final tournament of the World Cup, is unlikely to undergo any special changes. The only choice that faces Hamir Hallgrimsson - who put on the spearhead of the attack - Alfred Finnbogasona or Dadi Bedvarsson.

Mircea Lucescu, coach of Turkey:.

"We would like to repeat the result of the qualifying tournament of Euro-2016, when Turkey defeated Iceland 1: 0. Just do not forget that then Iceland has already guaranteed a trip to France. Now we, and our rival are fighting for an exit to the World Cup. The victory over Croatia gave the guys faith in their strength, and as Paulo Coelho wrote, if you believe in victory, victory will believe in you ".

Heimir Hallgrimsson, coach of the Icelandic team:.

"The situation in our group is such that the winner and losers are sure to be determined in the last round. To become the first one, one must first of all avoid making mistakes ".

Approximate compositions Turkey: Babacan - Erkin, Soyunju, Topal, Ayhan - Turan, Ozyakup, Sahin, Mor - Yilmaz, Tosun.

Iceland: Halldoorsson - Magnusson, Ignasson, R. Sigurdsson, Sevarsson - Bjarnasson, Gunnarsson, Halfredsson, Gudmundsson - G. Sigurdsson - Finnbogason.
