Thats the interesting part about the World Cup and short tournaments though, a well-disciplined team can surprise.

That being said though, Iceland have lost their element of surprise. They're not sneaking up on anyone anymore.
Their first game against Argentina will be really interesting. Can they use their height against the short and weak Argentina keeper and defense. Especially on set pieces. Argentine keepers are notoriously bad in the air. Can that be the surprise.
