Following a convincing 4-1 win away against Sweden, Austria booked their place at Euro 2016.

Understandably for a nation that has only ever played in one European Championship – the one they co-hosted in 2008 – it was quite a big deal to reach next summer’s tournament.

With their place in France now assured, Austria’s coach, Marcel Koller, was clearly getting into the spirit of things. Following the game, he fielded a series of questions at the press conference whilst wearing a beret and eating a baguette.

“It tastes very good,” a contented Koller beamed, munching on his baguette.

What’s he going to do if they qualify for the Russia World Cup in 2018?
