Go cry into your fish. Its over.”

This is very bizarrely bitter. Iceland > England.

Wales have more chance of beating France or Germany than they do Portugal imo. I know they've been better than Portugal but you can just see them shithousing their way intothe final.
Iceland will exit this tournament with a lot of respect despite the eventual scoreline. Even now, they aren't letting their heads go down and are still having a go. It's good to watch a mature team with great fans who have no sense of entitlement or bitterness and are determined to enjoy themselves.

What a load of sentimental old tosh, their heads went down after the first goal. absoultly no effort to block the 3rd goal, a good rollicking at HT has made them play with some pride this half that was totally missing in the 1st.
