KH Hlidarendi produced a commanding performance to beat Augnablik Kopavogur 3–1 in the Iceland Division 3 on 27 June 2026. The result moved KH Hlidarendi into the promotion conversation, while Augnablik were left to rue a sluggish start.

KH Hlidarendi Take Control Early

The visitors opened the scoring in the 12th minute when a well‑worked short corner led to a low cross that was turned home at the near post.

Augnablik Respond But Cannot Complete Comeback

Augnablik pulled a goal back just before half‑time, capitalising on a defensive error to score from close range. The goal gave the home side hope, and they started the second half with renewed energy. However, KH Hlidarendi restored their two‑goal cushion in the 65th minute when a counter‑attack ended with a clinical finish across the goalkeeper. Augnablik pushed forward but could not breach the KH defence again.

Tactical Takeaways

• KH Hlidarendi’s high press forced Augnablik into mistakes and created numerous turnovers.
• Augnablik’s lack of width made them predictable in attack, as they relied too heavily on central combinations.
• KH’s midfield trio dominated the second balls and controlled the tempo.

Division 3 Implications

KH Hlidarendi’s victory lifted them into the top four of the division, while Augnablik slipped further away from the promotion race. The away side’s ability to score three times on the road underlined their attacking potency this season.
