On 18 September 2010, Þór won against Fjarðabyggð to move into second place in the second division of Icelandic football, 1. deild karla.

Leiknir played their match at the same time and so knew they needed to at least draw to earn promotion as the scoreline was always in Þór's favor.

However, only 5 minutes into the game Leiknir's opponent Fjölnir scored on a strike from forward Pétur Georg Markan.
