Elísa Viðarsdóttir (born 26 May 1991) is a Icelandic footballer who plays as a defender for Kristianstads DFF of the Swedish Damallsvenskan and the Iceland women's national football team. She is the younger sister of Margrét Lára Viðarsdóttir, Iceland's record goalscorer.[1] Like Margrét Lára, she began her career with Úrvalsdeild club ÍBV.
Club career
She has played for ÍBV since 2007 with her first league match coming in 2011.
Kristianstads DFF, the Swedish club where Margrét Lára was playing, gave a trial to Elísa before the start of their 2013 Damallsvenskan season. During Elísa's visit she played in a pre-season friendly but Kristianstads had no immediate plans to sign her to a contract.[2] She eventually transferred to Kristianstads in January 2014, by which time Margrét Lára had gone on maternity leave.[3]
International career
Elísa's senior international debut came at the 2012 Algarve Cup, in a 1–0 defeat to Germany.[4]
She was called up to be part of the national team for the UEFA Women's Euro 2013.[5]
