VOLGOGRAD, Russia (Reuters) - Iceland winger Johann Berg Gudmundsson is very unlikely to recover from injury in time to play in the World Cup Group D game against Nigeria on Friday, his coach Heimir Hallgrimsson said.

"He is getting better every day. He is good hands. I am not going to hide that it is very unlikely that he will play," Hallgrimsson told reporters on Thursday.
