Iceland's anthem is pretty cool.
But then, so is France's.

Admiral Yi

So is Pigsticker out? :(

I would be very appreciative if y'all would include final results in your discussions.  I don't have the time right now to follow it myself.

Duque de Bragança

Nope, he failed his penalty though and got a goal cancelled, rightfully so, for a foul he committed.

Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Duque de Bragança

French commentators do not even try to say Icelandic players' names.  :lol:

Duque de Bragança

It's a bit early I know, but I thought Iceland would put up more a fight. :(

2-0 after 20 minutes.

Too hard. ;) Just Icelandic defender/Midfielder/attacker. They manage to pronounce one after 17 min though.

PS: they seem to manage it more or less now, after some hesitation.

Nah, it's just that they suck at languages, French included.

They must be quite stupid too, if they think they have to learn the language to pronounce someone's name.

Learning how to pronounce a surname is quite an endeavour for them. Comparable to learning a language while stricto sensu, it's not necessary, of course.

Seems over now for Iceland. Rotten whale steaks eaten before the match?

They've stopped showing the game and started showing sad pretty blond girls :D
