Stunningly exiting 90 mins of football over 2 games

The Euro Group F deciding games. 9 goals across two games. !
I watched the Iceland - Austria game but also with great interest in the Portugal - Hungary game as well, as the outcome of both determined who England would play next. Iceland - I love them, what a stunning result for them and an extraordinary tournament they are having so far. Population of 330,000 people, not only made it to the Euro's, not only made it out of the group stage, but made it out in second place and ahead of Portugal ! So pleased for them. If England are to go out in the first stage of the knockout round, there is not a team I would rather they go out too than Iceland. The only shame for me is that Hungary could not quite put Portugal out entirely and in doing so keep Turkey's hopes alive.
