Made the World Cup play-offs with a draw in Oslo!

I really hope they get a favourable play-off draw. :clap2::clap2:

Should they qualify they would be the smallest nation ever to compete in the finals.

Have they ever been in the finals?
They've never been to any major tournament, ever.

...to the overhauling of Iceland's infrastructure, which was carried out by the country's governing body, the KSI, in 2000 and saw a range of artificial pitches built across Iceland and an emphasis put on small-sided games to improve the technique of young players. Alongside this, there was also a drive to increase the number of homegrown Uefa-qualified coaches, which has also borne fruit.

Iceland vs. Lidl in the play-offs, perhaps?

Should be a good'un...

Seriously though, good for them and good luck to them. :thumbsup:

The seedings are a waste of time. Why do they bother?

I hope Iceland get Greece.

I saw the thread title and assumed they'd dropped the Katona bint, dropped the "Posh Nosh" range and closed their hell hole on Boundary Road. Disappointed.
