Agreed. They beat Netherlands twice in qualifying - who is questionably a better team and has less of a habit of choking in early tournaments. They beat Turkey and Czech Republic in qualifying as well. Iceland has proven they can beat quality teams + England gonna England = recipe for Iceland win.


It's an upset on stature, not form. England's are one of the 10 biggest football countries, a marquee nation. Iceland have never qualified for a tournament. There were more people living in the largest borough of London, which has 26 boroughs, than in all of Iceland.

Then it's not really an upset to me. Form/ability is what matters. Never did I consider Iceland winning all that far-fetched.
