In the last game of the season he had the chance to play for the first time, league leader Leiknir played against Vikingur, the third-placed, the winner would be promoted. Hannes has been waiting for this the whole season, he called TV stations to report and then he hit the ground during a goal kick \u2013 the opposing striker only had to pass the ball into the goal. On Icelandic television, the only scene that could be seen afterwards was Leiknir blowing the promotion.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-jw6a6suh-e75a2f9902c834cf7410c4590ae8b2f1 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>However, it has to be said that Hannes&#8217; career was actually over before that. At the age of six, he began training as a goalkeeper with record champions KR Rejkjavik until he was 14, all the time he was considered to be talented. But then he and his father raced on a snowboard and Hannes injured his shoulder. In the years to come, it dislocated again and again and he didn&#8217;t play until he was operated at the age of 19.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-jw6bff4w-f20afd3e043fb8abe3b6d18c9665d316\">\n#top .hr.av-jw6bff4w-f20afd3e043fb8abe3b6d18c9665d316{\nmargin-top:00px;\nmargin-bottom:30px;\n}\n.hr.av-jw6bff4w-f20afd3e043fb8abe3b6d18c9665d316 .hr-inner{\nwidth:350px;\nborder-color:#020202;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-jw6bff4w-f20afd3e043fb8abe3b6d18c9665d316 hr-custom  avia-builder-el-13  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_one_fifth  hr-center hr-icon-no'><span class='hr-inner inner-border-av-border-thin'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_one_fifth-1df1b63c6c045939f2dc1aefbdd8e7ad\">\n.flex_column.av-av_one_fifth-1df1b63c6c045939f2dc1aefbdd8e7ad{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_one_fifth-1df1b63c6c045939f2dc1aefbdd8e7ad av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_one_half  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_one_half-862f0c8b97abc46405e90743a1c7ee0e\">\n.flex_column.av-av_one_half-862f0c8b97abc46405e90743a1c7ee0e{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_one_half-862f0c8b97abc46405e90743a1c7ee0e av_one_half  avia-builder-el-15  el_after_av_one_fifth  el_before_av_one_fifth  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-k1kktuhz-f281a51290030451fc57537a506d760f\">\n.avia-image-container.av-k1kktuhz-f281a51290030451fc57537a506d760f img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-k1kktuhz-f281a51290030451fc57537a506d760f .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-k1kktuhz-f281a51290030451fc57537a506d760f av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-16  avia-builder-el-no-sibling '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class='wp-image-12288 avia-img-lazy-loading-12288 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/brand.uhlsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Halldorsson_11.jpg\" alt='#uhlsquad -
