Up until a month ago, very few people knew of the Iceland National Team. Tonight, they beat England, moving into the quarterfinals of the Eurocup. The team which is not worth millions, whose players have regular jobs and an occasional extra consonant in their last names, has brought up millions of fans around the world to enjoy the victory of sport, above everything else. The final result was 2:1. After the shocking result, Hodgson resigned as England’s manager.
For the first time in a decade, Spain is out of the Euros. The revenge of team Italy couldn’t have come in a better moment for the Azzurri that won by 2:0, kicking out the reigning champion from the tournament.
Toda una ducha fría para la Selección española que perdió con un 0:2 de Italia. Una España confundida, kilómetros alejada del tiki-taka que le había ganado tanto prestigio. Pese a la amarga derrota, De Gea se destaca como el jugador más importante del partido, que había salvado a la Selección de una humillación completa.
In a match that was full of political tensions, more than anything else, Serbia won their second leg match against Albania, at the Elbasan city stadium. The uneventful 90 minutes were suddenly brought to life after two quick goals during stoppage time. Serbia’s goal, during the first half of the duel (31′) was annulled, due to what was estimated as a strong contact between the Albanian keeper, and Serbia’s Zoran Tošić.
As the second half of this Euro 2016 qualifying match was lagging to a close, a beautiful pairing between Adem Ljajić and Aleksandar Kolarov, resulted in the first official goal of the night. Kolarov made sure the ball shook the net, from his left side, to the lower right hand corner. All of this, in the 91. minute.
As the home crowd was losing the energy to support their team, Ljajić is facing Berisha alone. His seamless lob shot, ended up right where it was supposed to. A total of two goals to null, as the stadium, mostly filled by the home fans was completely silenced.
The few Serbian fans that did make it to the Elbasan stadium were ecstatic, while the players ran up to them, to celebrate this moral and athletic win.
A victory in an occasion that was a lot more than just a game.
