Makayla Soll, captain and key player for the women's football team KR, suffered a double fracture in both arms when she fell against the wall during a match against FHL at Fjarðabyggðarhöllinni over the weekend. John Andrews, KR's coach, expressed surprise at how short the wall was during the game. Georg Bjarnason shared a video of the incident on his X page, showing Soll falling heavily against the wall inside the stadium. Makayla was taken off the field shortly before halftime and spent about half an hour on the sideline before being transported by ambulance to the hospital in Neskaupstað.
