Career

society

Margrét Lára Viðarsdóttir grew up with two brothers and a sister on a small island off the main island of Iceland. She started playing soccer when she was five. Their first club was called ÍBV Vestmannaeyjar . In 2004 she moved to Valur Reykjavík and was immediately top scorer in the Icelandic league. A year later, she completed a trial training at 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam , but there was no change.

In 2006 Margrét Lára Viðarsdóttir won the championship, the cup and was top scorer for the third time in a row with 35 goals in 14 games. Again, top European teams like Potsdam or Djurgårdens IF / Älvsjö tried to get the dangerous center forward. Somewhat surprisingly, FCR 2001 Duisburg was awarded the contract, where the student signed a contract until June 30, 2008. She made her debut in the lioness jersey on October 21, 2006 in the cup game at Turbine Potsdam. In the 3-2 win, she contributed two goals and one assist. However , she was only eligible to play in the Bundesliga on January 1, 2007. On January 25, 2007 the contract was terminated. She had asked for the separation because she was very homesick and returned to Valur Reykjavík .

There she was again champion in 2007 and again secured the title of top scorer with 38 goals in 16 games. For the 2009 season she moved to the Swedish club Kristianstads DFF. Margrét left Sweden on October 17, 2011 and signed with the 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam. She was eligible to play in the Bundesliga since January 1, 2012. She returned to Kristianstad for the 2012/2013 season . There she played with a one-year pregnancy break until the end of the 2015 season. For the 2016 season, she returned to Iceland.

National team

Margrét played four international matches for the Icelandic U-17 team at the Nordic Cup in July 2001 , where the Icelandic women finished last. Also in 2001, at the age of 15, she took part with the U-19 team in the three qualifying rounds for the 2004 European Women's U-19 Football Championship . As the last in the third round they could not qualify for the finals. In July 2002 she took part in the Nordic Cup in her home country with the U-17 team and came third there. In October she failed with the U-19s in the first qualifying round for the U-19 European Women's Football Championship in 2003 , scoring three of the five goals of the Icelanders. In March 2003, at the age of 16, she played for the U-21 team for the first time, but then took part again with the U-17 team in June / July in the Nordic Cup in Sweden , where they were only last. In April 2004, she scored three goals in the second qualifying round for the 2004 Women's U-19 European Football Championship, but failed because of the later Vice European Champion Germany, in which Annike Krahn , Anja Mittag , Lena Goeßling and Melanie Behringer also played. At the Nordic Cup 2004 of the U-21 teams in Iceland they remained unbeaten in all games and won the game for 5th place on penalties against Germany. In 2005 and 2006 she took part in this tournament again with the U-21 team.

In between, she played her first international match for the Icelandic women's national team against Hungary on June 14, 2003, six weeks before her 17th birthday, and four minutes after being substituted on she scored the goal to make it 4-1. She was then immediately a regular player and until October 2012 only missed seven games. On September 13, 2003, she scored her first "triple pack" in a 10-0 win against Poland in her fourth international match.

At the Algarve Cup in 2008 she scored half of the Icelandic goals and was the top scorer with six goals.

On March 12, 2007, she outbid Ásthildur Helgadóttir's national record with her 23 international goal in a 5-1 win over Portugal and subsequently expanded it further and further. Until the qualification for the European Championship 2009 the Icelanders had tried in vain to qualify for a final round. Then, as the top scorer in the qualification , she helped decide that she could qualify Iceland for the first time for a final round. The Icelanders lost the three games, but against runner-up European champions Norway and defending champions Germany only just 0: 1 and were the team that conceded the fewest goals against eventual European champions Germany.

In qualifying for the 2011 World Cup , they only lost the two games against the strengthened French women , who then finished fourth at the World Cup. On September 17, 2009, in their first game against Estonia, they achieved the highest win in their international history with a 12-0 win, to which they contributed three goals and scored their 50th international goal. With ten goals she was the fifth top scorer in European qualifying. As second in the group, however, they missed the subsequent playoff games.

The next high point in her career was reaching the 2011 Algarve Cup final against the USA , which after a 2-1 lead to which she contributed was lost 2-4.

In qualifying for the EM 2013 , she was the second best goalscorer with two other players and thus played a significant role in qualifying the Icelanders for the second time. In the play-off first leg against Ukraine, she scored the goal to make it 3-2 and paved the way for another 3-2 win in the second leg with a 1-0 lead. In the finals , she was able to convert a penalty in the first game against Norway for the Icelandic team to 1-1, which Iceland won the first point in a final round. After a 3-0 defeat against defending champions Germany, they won 1-0 against the more highly rated Dutch women and reached the quarter-finals as the best third party in the group. Here, however, they lost 4-0 against hosts Sweden.

Due to her pregnancy, she could not be considered for the Algarve Cup 2014 . At the Algarve Cup 2015 , she came back in the first game against Switzerland for the first time since her pregnancy when she came on in the 65th minute. On September 22, 2015, she made her 100th international match in the European Championship qualifier against Belarus . On February 15, 2016, she was honored by the Icelandic Association together with Hólmfríður Magnúsdóttir , who played her 100th international match on October 26, 2015.

In qualifying for the 2017 European Championship , she scored five goals in eight games. She was unable to take part in the European Championship finals due to an injury. It was not used again until the Algarve Cup 2019 , but was only substituted there as in several other games of the year.
