In Nice, the Icelanders played one of the loudest anthems in the history of recent championships: they forced the English footballers to go home after beating them 2:1, writes lrytas.lt.
"The most brutal defeat for England in the entire history of the country. The word is England, but damn, we are thinking about Iceland," - said the famous Gary Lineker to the "Metro" portal after Monday's loss.
"Now tell me, where is the logic in this math: 47 million euros is significantly more than 477 million? That tiny football total - is the total of all the Icelanders playing in the championship in France, and that big one - the English going home. Where is the logic?" - asks "Mirror".
"The Icelandic pony made three lions kneel. Is this not shameful? Is this not a shameful murder?" - asks the same "Mirror".
"A man who receives 3.5 million pounds sterling per year cannot cope with some Iceland," - wrote "The Guardian" about coach Hodgson.
"England shook Europe again," writes "The Time". "In theory, the English were supposed to play well against stronger teams, but the reality is different - they were defeated by a weaker one."
