True Leader.C'mon!

While historically being one of Europe's smaller football nations, Iceland have enjoyed more success in the 21st century. In thequalifying rounds for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, Iceland reached the play-offs before losing to Croatia. Iceland reached its first major tournament, UEFA Euro 2016, after a qualification campaign which included home and away wins over the Netherlands. In doing this they became the smallest ever nation to qualify for a major tournament. After advancing to the knockout stages of Euro 2016, Iceland defeated England in the round of 16, advancing to the quarter finals.

In a friendly against Estonia on 24 April 1996 in Tallinn, Eiður Smári Guðjohnsen entered as a substitute for his father Arnór. This marked the first time that a father and son played in the same international match.
Iceland fans went wild as their national squad crushed England 2–1 to secure a shocking Euro 2016 triumph in the round of 16, one that finished with England chief Roy Hodgson tendering his abdication. 

Iceland had never fit the bill for a noteworthy competition before the European Championship, and it is the littlest nation in the competition. That didn't prevent the island country from toppling England, with Ragnar Sigurdsson and Kolbeinn Sigthorsson scoring after Wayne Rooney opened the scoring in the fourth moment from the punishment spot. 


Look as Iceland's fans, a number of whom pressed a town square in Reykjavik, go insane amid and after the notable win.
