Why did Iceland just score that? Weren't they going into the top half with a draw?

Because it's easier to win vs England than Croatia :cool:

So Portugal just got an easier route to the final because Iceland scored there?

As if they're gonna get anywhere with this team. They're pathetic.

I must be missing this 'stupid iceland' stuff, they just won a game, in the championships, finished 2nd in their group. you think they care about if they're playing england or Croatia?

Portugal might be in the easier half of the draw but they arw crap and wont beat Croatia anyway

Yehr the goal secures a place in the next round for Iceland. If Ireland or Sweden win then they would have been out so of course they'd prefer to score to be sure.

Nevermind forgot so many teams were on 3 points so they were through.

No they wouldn't.

A draw was enough to put them through whatever.

3rd place was through no matter what on 3 points because GD was better then Turkey and Albania. Just highlights what a mess 3rd place is.

But any combination of France then Germany/Spain/Italy is a lot harder than any combination you can come up with in the top half.

Maybe a target for this tournament was to win a game. Maybe qualifying for the next round was beyond their wildest dreams. Maybe they don't have 'winning the lot' as a target. I'm going to say it means **** all which side of the draw they are in from their pov.

You think Iceland have time to worry about who they play after the next round? They'd want the easier next match and they have got it.

Great game.

In all honesty, I bet Iceland cause us more problems as they will be resolute. Portugal can be broken down easily enough, so that would have suited England (albeit they would pose more threat going forward).

Iceland could well see out a 0-0 and do us on Pens.

Iceland don't give a **** who they're playing in the R16, them just making the competition was a success for them, getting out of the group is an amazing achievement, they most likely would have expected to be out in the group stage so whether they play England or any other top nation wouldn't have crossed their mind. They'll be over the moon at playing a KO game at a major tournament.

Portugal could easily have outscored us as our defence is crap. Iceland will be difficult to break down but they're not going to score 2 or 3 against us.

It won't be easy but we should beat Iceland
