Plymouth Argyle defender Victor Palsson played the full 90 minutes of Iceland's 4-1 loss to Wales in Cardiff.

Two first-half goals by Liam Cullen and second-half strikes from Brennan Johnson and Harry Wilson ensured Wales topped their pool and won promotion to the top level of the Nations League.

Iceland finish third in their group, four points behind Turkey, and will go into a play-off with a side second in League C to determine which level they will play in next season.

Meanwhile, fellow Pilgrims defender Kornel Szucs was an unused substitute as Hungary drew 1-1 with Germany in Budapest.

The result sees the Hungarians finish third in their League A pool and face a relegation play-off.

Also an unused substitute was Argyle forward Mustapha Bundu in Sierra Leone's 2-0 loss to Zambia in their Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.

The loss means Sierra Leone miss out on qualification for next year's tournament after finishing third in their group behind Zambia and Ivory Coast.
