That's Amazing.

If Iceland could make it in that would be nuts!

Iceland's biggest moment in European football since their volcano forced Barca to travel by bus to Milan in 2010

Sure would be funny to see Hungary and Iceland come out of that group.

This enormity of us being in this tourney is lost on most of the world. A nation of 330,000 people taking Portugal to a 1-1 is massive.

I hope my Canadian friends make Team Iceland their team, us even being here is crazy, let alone making it past the qualifier round.

Go Iceland!

So what's the deal with Iceland? Are these guys all in line for some big league contracts being thrown their way or is it the coaching?

How is this happening?

Well the Mountain is from Iceland, I'm guessing he just threatens to crush all the Iceland players families if they don't perform. Pretty good motivator if you ask me.

I have no idea how its possible, we have world famous music acts, tons of star football players, its just a weird thing that I cannot explain.

I worked out with him about 1.5 yrs ago, I'm 6'4 and at that time he absolutely made me feel like a skinny small man. But he's about as gentle of a giant as you meet, he hates attention.

Yes it would, Hungary has not come out of a group stage since the 70s, though i do remember watching a group win against El Salvador of 10-1 in 1982 on closed circuit or something like that, it was not on cable tv at the time.

The english commentators seemed to really get a kick out of it, they mentioned Puskas at least twice.
