We wonder what Cristiano Ronaldo makes of this celebration?
The Portuguese star criticised Iceland’s players for celebrating their group draw last week by saying: “I thought they’d won the Euros the way they celebrated at the end.”
Well now Iceland, like Portugal, are just three games away from winning Euro 2016 after claiming a place in the quarter-finals following a 2-1 victory over England.
Wayne Rooney’s fourth-minute penalty gave England a lead that they held for all of two minutes before Ragnar Sigurdsson equalised from one of the Icelanders’ famed long throw ins.
Just over ten minutes later, Kolbeinn Sigthorsson reaped the benefits of a Joe Hart howler to give Iceland the 2-1 lead which they held onto for the rest of the night to claim the biggest win in their history.
Most weren’t questioning whether England would beat Iceland but, rather, how many goals they’d beat them by.
That wasn’t taking into account the team mentality of Lars Lagerbäck’s men who shocked the world and cost Roy Hodgson his job in Nice.
This is what it meant to the 23 players who sent their die-hard fans into rapturous applause with this spinetingling celebration near the corner flag after the final whistle.
Even if you’re still hurting from Monday night’s defeat, it’s hard not to get goosebumps at this.
