Nanny, 1-0, Portugal strike first. Defend, defend, defend. | :01:12. | :01:19. | |
This is small mentality. Iceland leave with a points, Ronaldo leaves | :01:20. | :01:28. | |
with a smile. He is a sore loser. Hungary the | :01:29. | :01:35. | |
300-1 outsiders. Would you believe it? 1-0, to the | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
underdogs. Goal! | :01:42. | :01:49. | |
The biggest upset so far. Hungary, the rank outsiders in the group, | :01:50. | :01:51. | |
winning their open. Two of the less fancied teams | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
at Euro 2016 have already made a big Hungary were shock | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
winners against Austria. Iceland had the temerity to rile | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
Ronaldo. And this is how it | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
stands in Group F. Hungary lead the way | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
on three points. Victory tonight and they will be | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
through to the second round. Portugal face Austria | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
later in Paris. Croatia have been charged | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
after flares were thrown on the pitch and fighting broke out | :02:21. | :02:30. | |
in the stands during their 2-2 draw Turkey have also been charged | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
in relation to crowd trouble at last night's | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
match against Spain. Here in the studio, I'm joined | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
by John Hartson and Danny Murphy. The macro John tries to declare he | :02:44. | :02:58. | |
was out in -- he was Icelandic! There was less attention on the | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
point against Portugal and more on Ronaldo's comments that they showed | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
a small mentality, is he right? No, not really. I think naturally, when | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
you play against a team as good as Portugal, with the likes of Nani and | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
Ronaldo, you will get as many men behind the ball as you can. This | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
scored a goal against the run of play, Bjarnason, a good goal and | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
movement in the Portuguese box caused confusion. When Gunnarsson | :03:29. | :03:38. | |
asked Ronaldo for his shirt, it might have been for his son. I think | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
it is arrogant. Just give him your shirt. Disrespectful. Ronaldo is one | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
of the best players in the world, he does not need to act like that, in | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
little disrespectful. What about hungrier? Austria with a dot courses | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
and yet Hungary dismantles them. -- Hungary. They were very good in both | :03:59. | :04:06. | |
areas of the pitch. Defensively organised, a good shape, and | :04:07. | :04:08. | |
offensively they put together good moves. They had nice balance, great | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
work ethic. And they thoroughly deserved the victory. A fantastic | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
game for them. One match has been played already today. After drawing | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
with Sweden in the opening game, the Republic of Ireland faced Belgium in | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
Group B and here is the best of the action. | :04:29. | :04:35. | |
Leaving that for Moussa Dembele LA. What a fantastic ball, rates chance | :04:36. | :04:47. | |
for Eden Hazzard. The first really big chance in the game. | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
What a ball from Kevin de Bruyne and excellence defending from O Shea | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
against Romelu Lukaku, what a chance. | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
Lovely flick from Hazzard in the Kevin de Bruyne, who shoots. Not | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
enough pace to trouble Darren Randolph. Belgian threatening again. | :05:07. | :05:17. | |
A bit of space for Hazzard. Kevin de Bruyne. Knocking on the draw a bit. | :05:18. | :05:25. | |
That is the option getting forward, a real did -- attacking outlet and | :05:26. | :05:34. | |
good vision from de Bruyne. From Brady. Long almost had his head | :05:35. | :05:42. | |
taken off. Very high boot from Toby Alderweireld. The referee has not | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
blown. Long stays on the ground. The ball from Hoolahan, it does not fall | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
from Stephen Ward and along comes Romelu Lukaku. De Bruyne brings the | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
ball inside the Irish half of the field. | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
Romelu Lukaku gets it. It could be a chance, it is a goal for Romelu | :06:02. | :06:07. | |
Lukaku two minutes into the second half. And the side ranked number two | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
in the world have scored their first goal in the tournament and it is | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
from the big number nine. A well worked goal from Belgium. | :06:18. | :06:29. | |
Whip Tim. 2-0! -- it is whipped in. Nobody checks the run. A free | :06:30. | :06:44. | |
header. That is a poor goal for Ireland to concede. Belgium two, | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
Republic of Ireland zero. Axel Witsel with half an hour to go. | :06:50. | :07:01. | |
Maclean. He gets the better of that and it is towards Hazzard who avoids | :07:02. | :07:10. | |
that diving charge. Belgian threatening a third goal. Lukaku, it | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
must be three, it is! Lukaku's second of the game and there is no | :07:16. | :07:22. | |
coming back from this. 3-0, Belgium. Another poor island goal to concede. | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
Defeat for the Republic of Ireland leaving them bottom of Group E, | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
their best chance of qualification is to beat Italy and the hope they | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
go through as one of the best third placed teams. The Italians already | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
done through to the last 16 as group winners and Belgium join them if | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
they avoid defeat against Sweden. How would you describe it, was | :07:45. | :07:46. | |
island outclassed? Yes, they were totally outclassed. | :07:47. | :07:54. | |
The endeavour and commitment, they had it. I do not think Thibaut | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
Courtois had anything of any danger to save. So I think when you play | :08:01. | :08:07. | |
against a team, one of the top five teams in the world, it is very | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
difficult. They dominate possession. Ireland never got going. Towards the | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
end of the game when the game was over, they started to pass it around | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
a bit more. But over the piece, totally dominant, Belgium, they | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
deserved to win. They came up against a wounded animal and a team | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
that's needed a result. Give the Belgium manager some credit, the | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
changes he made helped Belgium. Kevin de Bruyne went into a central | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
position. Timberlake instead of the Laney looked better in that | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
formation -- Moussa Dembele LA. Very good side and I expect them to kick | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
on now. Romelu Lukaku got hammered after the game against Italy and | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
today he was the first Belgium to score two goals in one match at a | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
tournament since his manager who did it in France's 1998. Did they get | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
more out of him today? I thought he did a lot of good things in the | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
game. He worked hard and he started this and finished it himself. | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
You have to play to his trains. You have to get goals and behind and | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
into his feet, when he is rolling people. At times, but held the, and | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
another good finish by the way. At times, Belgium overplay. Get the | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
ball in, John has done that himself. You were telling a great story about | :09:26. | :09:34. | |
the Celtic boys. We were telling Lukaku to go and show, be the focal | :09:35. | :09:41. | |
point, be the target. If I knew that I had to do it, the midfield players | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
who I played with, I knew that I had to be there. I had to be a target | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
for them. Or he would get told off! In no uncertain terms! Some Belgium | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
players will think they can do it on their own and may be quite rightly | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
without Lukaku in that position? The fact they have not scored bundles of | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
goals in the qualifiers shows that they do dominate possession but they | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
do not have that cutting edge. It is all well and good having a lot of | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
good players, but you have to make chances and score goals. Get the | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
ball into him and get people around him and they cause teams real | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
problems. Back to today and this Hungary side seems to be benefiting | :10:24. | :10:29. | |
from a 10-year plan launched by the Hungarian Football Federation in | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
2011. The manifesto titled The Decade of Revival had a headline | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
goal of qualification for the Euros in Twenty20 so in that respect, they | :10:38. | :10:44. | |
have gone ahead of schedule. At one time, Hungarian football was feared | :10:45. | :10:46. | |
throughout the world. The golden team, the magnificent | :10:47. | :10:52. | |
Magyars, the mighty Magyars, the Magical Magyars. You know you are | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
doing something right when you have multiple complementary nicknames. | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
The Hungarian national team custody sensation in the 1950s. Even before | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
they turned up at Wembley in November 90 53. | :11:06. | :11:14. | |
-- the 53. I remember it was a Wednesday afternoon, early kick-off, | :11:15. | :11:17. | |
no floodlights but still 100,000 people packed into Wembley. | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
Now a chance. It is a goal! Hungary played 4-2- | :11:22. | :11:28. | |
four. Something we have not seen before. We were stunned. We saw a | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
system of play we had never seen before. And of these players lead | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
anything to buzz. They seemed to open up the defence. The defence | :11:39. | :11:44. | |
opens wide for them to come through it, simply fantastic. We did not | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
know about them, we did afterwards. They were men from Mars as far as we | :11:50. | :11:57. | |
were concerned. A lovely goal! 24 minutes, ten Courtois, England one. | :11:58. | :12:07. | |
-- Hungary one. In the times, they said that the players pushed the | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
ball back with the soles of their feet. And we went past them like a | :12:13. | :12:18. | |
fire engine going to the wrong fire. 4-2 at half-time and we thought | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
there was a revival on the way. These were the Magical Magyars as | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
they were known and they just got on with it. It is a goal! Against hands | :12:27. | :12:34. | |
as one of the most innovative games in English football history -- the | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
game stands. That was the moment there were no excuses, England were | :12:40. | :12:42. | |
clearly not as good as other teams. It absolutely torpedoed the | :12:43. | :12:49. | |
overconfidence and insularity of English football. That is the | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
whistle, it is all over, England three, Hungary six. After an | :12:54. | :12:59. | |
embarrassing England 7-1 in the return match in Budapest six months | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
later, Hungary were overwhelming favourites done into the 1954 World | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
Cup. They demolished West Germany 8-3 in the group stages before | :13:10. | :13:11. | |
meeting them again in the final itself. You can probably guess what | :13:12. | :13:17. | |
happens next. The six -- the surprise came six | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
minutes from the end when the World Cup went to Germany. The team had | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
peaked. The players went on to have glittering careers in Spain but the | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
national side never hit the dizzy heights again. Many teams have had | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
more success than Hungary on the international stage, but few can | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
claim the law and respect that the mighty Magyars continue to have the | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
this day. And following in their footsteps, | :13:44. | :13:50. | |
these are the modern-day Magyars. 40-year-old Kiraly, the most capped | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
player in Hungarian history and he is fed up of people asking about his | :13:55. | :14:00. | |
tracksuit bottoms. An injury to Attila Fiola means a defensive share | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
shuffle. West Bromwich and Fulham fans remember Zoltan Gera as an | :14:07. | :14:13. | |
attacking midfielder and he now protects the back four. The | :14:14. | :14:19. | |
creativity of the captain is a key part, Dzsudzsak putting in more | :14:20. | :14:26. | |
crosses against Austria. And despite ending an 18 month goal drought, | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
Szalai is dropped and he is replaced by the Watford striker, Priskin. | :14:33. | :14:45. | |
What is remarkable about Zoltan Gera, and he is a fantastic person, | :14:46. | :14:55. | |
he had a lot of problems as a child in a deprived area, mixed in with | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
alcohol and drugs and he found religion. It is well documented, it | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
he would never have made it as a foot or if he had not, it changed | :15:04. | :15:09. | |
his life. Spent many hours with him talking about it and he has a | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
fantastic character. Such a dedicated recessional. You need a | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
bit more than being dedicated, he was Man of the Match in the last | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
game and deservedly so. In this game he showed every aspect of his play. | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
He passes the ball well, he can play in this holding role. Two-footed as | :15:29. | :15:34. | |
well, sometimes he does not get enough credit for that. A good | :15:35. | :15:41. | |
technician, works hard at his game. This task, really clever. Getting | :15:42. | :15:49. | |
forward even from that deep position. He has got a great strike. | :15:50. | :15:57. | |
And he can tackle. This is a super tackle, I have seen him do a couple | :15:58. | :16:07. | |
worse than that! 37 years of age, and receptions, every aspect of | :16:08. | :16:09. | |
midfield play he has got full stop it was nice to hear John speak about | :16:10. | :16:16. | |
him earlier, he is a nice guy. Such a genuine guy, they do not make them | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
like him any more. A bit of everything, a real joker, always | :16:23. | :16:31. | |
played jokes on his team-mates. He has dropped back, he had a lot of | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
injuries as well. But he is also good in that position, he can play | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
the short passes, dropped his shoulder, he can strike the ball | :16:40. | :16:46. | |
well but up when I went to West Brom, I was told that Zoltan Gera | :16:47. | :16:54. | |
was on one wing and I had to play in between the 18-yard box. And Zoltan | :16:55. | :17:01. | |
Gera was fantastic. He can play wide, he could come back onto the | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
right foot, a really good footballer. He had a good teacher in | :17:06. | :17:17. | |
that role! You can understand frustrations about constant | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
questions about those tracksuit bottoms! It means that people rarely | :17:23. | :17:28. | |
talk about his goalkeeping and experience. He is older and his | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
career again when some of the Hungarian players were not even | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
born. He has been around for a long time. This is his best save, strong | :17:37. | :17:44. | |
hand. I think probably he will get more tested. I think when it is | :17:45. | :17:55. | |
raining it wears them down! He has been asked about it a lot and he | :17:56. | :17:58. | |
wears them because they are a good luck charm. He began wearing them | :17:59. | :18:04. | |
when he was younger to protect his knees on those hard surfaces in | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
Hungary. As for Iceland, a win would put them top of the group and see | :18:10. | :18:12. | |
them through to the second round. Confidence is high after the game | :18:13. | :18:18. | |
against Portugal. It was Independence Day yesterday in | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
Iceland and they're confident that they can give their 27,000 | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
travelling fans another day to celebrate. | :18:25. | :18:34. | |
A chance for the cross to come in. Absolute bedlam amongst the | :18:35. | :18:42. | |
Icelandic supporters. It is just a privilege and an honour to have my | :18:43. | :18:52. | |
name on the goal. Bjarnason leaves with his name writ large in sporting | :18:53. | :19:00. | |
history. Against a big team, a team that has a chance of winning the | :19:01. | :19:05. | |
whole thing, it is with the great. It was a special moment for myself | :19:06. | :19:08. | |
and my family. They were all watching the game. And the rest of | :19:09. | :19:16. | |
them watched on telly that did not come over. Iceland has put in an | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
enormous shift. Christiano Ronaldo leaves with a wry smile. Iceland | :19:23. | :19:29. | |
leave with a point. Just the fans, and scoring the goal. It was | :19:30. | :19:45. | |
unbelievable the way they reacted. He has got his own opinion, I do not | :19:46. | :19:50. | |
hate him for it, but quite disappointed to hear that from a big | :19:51. | :19:57. | |
player like him. We're not thinking about it too much, we just focus on | :19:58. | :20:04. | |
the next game. And as a country we should be pleased. That is how | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
simple it is. We going to win but we're not going to attack for 90 | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
minutes, with going to have to defend for long times. We are all | :20:16. | :20:22. | |
good friends and have been playing together since we played for the | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
under 15. We know each other really well. That is one of our strengths. | :20:27. | :20:33. | |
I do not think we are favourites in any of these games. We should be the | :20:34. | :20:38. | |
underdogs in this tournament. Everything that we do has never been | :20:39. | :20:46. | |
done before. We are making history. Iceland are unchanged for this match | :20:47. | :20:51. | |
against Hungary. The goalkeeper made eight saves, the most since Jo Hart | :20:52. | :20:56. | |
in the Euros in 2012. Let's concentrate on the defence. | :20:57. | :21:30. | |
They face 26 shots in the game against Poland. No side says that | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
many in the opening round of games. If you take a look at their heat | :21:35. | :21:40. | |
map, you can see where most of the action took place. Absolutely | :21:41. | :21:45. | |
incredible. Not taking away from what they achieved. They tried to | :21:46. | :21:54. | |
play for - 4-2. The white man does not getting the clear enough. -- the | :21:55. | :22:00. | |
white man. They get split, the centre-half comes out and does not | :22:01. | :22:05. | |
cover. If they play like this again they will not be so lucky again. | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
They were to open. They rode their luck too many times. This is a | :22:11. | :22:17. | |
better shape and a wonderful cross. The centre halves, too far apart, an | :22:18. | :22:24. | |
easy run for Ronaldo. But they showed great spirit and | :22:25. | :22:27. | |
determination, they do that again however and they will get done. | :22:28. | :22:33. | |
Their defensive ability is no fluke they did not concede in the first | :22:34. | :22:40. | |
three qualifiers in this campaign. So they have been properly drilled. | :22:41. | :22:47. | |
Absolutely. They will not get as much luck for the rest of the | :22:48. | :22:52. | |
tournament in my opinion. Portugal I thought were wasteful at times. They | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
needed the goalkeeper to make some good saves for the but they scored a | :22:57. | :23:04. | |
very good goal as well. Gunnarsson, Sigurdsson, Sigurdsson plays in the | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
Premier League Gunnarsson has experience of the Premier League | :23:09. | :23:18. | |
with Cardiff. But going forward, that is their strength. And | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
Sigurdsson against Portugal, he went through early on in the game. | :23:22. | :23:31. | |
Sigurdsson, and a lot of them as he said have come through together from | :23:32. | :23:36. | |
the under 15 team. That helps but I hope they get higher up the pitch. | :23:37. | :23:41. | |
Against Hungary they could cause them a couple of problems. Hungary | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
then against Iceland, we go live to the commentary team Robbie Savage in | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
Marseille. The surprise package of Euro 2016 | :23:52. | :24:06. | |
shoulder to shoulder in Marseille. Hungary lost to the Soviet Union in | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
1972 and would be a great achievement for a nation which has | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
been weighed down for years in footballing terms by its illustrious | :24:15. | :24:16. | |
past. And Iceland have no history to look back on, no past glory. This | :24:17. | :24:24. | |
team are the greats of Icelandic football. First national anthem will | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
be that of Hungary. Great support here, the Hungarians | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
outnumbering those from Iceland. # ver lofum pitt | :24:34. | :26:01. | |
heilaga, heilaga nafn.. # ur solkerfum himnanna | :26:02. | :26:19. | |
hnyta per krans. # Fyrir per er einn | :26:20. | :26:27. | |
dagur sem pusund ar. # eitt eil foar smablom | :26:28. | :26:40. | |
meo titrandi tar. # eitt eil foar smablom | :26:41. | :26:49. | |
meo titrandi tar. The coach singing along with the | :26:50. | :28:02. | |
words of the national anthem of his adopted country. Forget all that | :28:03. | :28:06. | |
small mentality stuff from Christiano Ronaldo, Iceland are | :28:07. | :28:11. | |
thinking big and thinking about the last 16 of this tournament. And a | :28:12. | :28:21. | |
win today might do it for them. The team is unchanged from the one which | :28:22. | :28:27. | |
played Portugal, no surprise there. They play in clubs from Wales, | :28:28. | :28:33. | |
Russia, Switzerland, England, France and Germany, but they are united in | :28:34. | :28:39. | |
the blue of Iceland. And they are the least populous country ever to | :28:40. | :28:44. | |
reach the European Championship finals. One great tweet in the | :28:45. | :28:54. | |
Portugal game, 0.05% their population behind the ball! The | :28:55. | :28:59. | |
referee is a Russian and he also took charge of the Romanian draw | :29:00. | :29:13. | |
with Switzerland. The Hungarian team selection not quite so | :29:14. | :29:20. | |
straightforward as that of Iceland. The German coach without his first | :29:21. | :29:28. | |
choice of Attila Fiola, he is injured. Loveridge also injured. -- | :29:29. | :29:38. | |
Lovrencsics. Adam Szalai dropped despite ending | :29:39. | :30:01. | |
his goal drought. And Priskin now playing for Bratislava, he comes in. | :30:02. | :30:06. | |
A win would take Iceland to four points and a draw would did the same | :30:07. | :30:10. | |
for hungry. Would that enough for a team to go through if they finished | :30:11. | :30:16. | |
third in the group? Only once has a team not progressed having earned | :30:17. | :30:22. | |
four points and that was Norway in 1994. It is Iceland all in blue | :30:23. | :30:28. | |
against Hungary in the white. Iceland get the first half underway. | :30:29. | :30:30. | |
Kicking from left to right. Iceland got a fantastic point | :30:31. | :30:49. | |
against Portugal. Fantastic display and Hungary the surprise package. I | :30:50. | :30:53. | |
thought Austria would have a good tournament and for them to score two | :30:54. | :30:56. | |
goals and get a clean sheet, positive start. Big header from the | :30:57. | :31:03. | |
left-back position, Hungary. The referee has blown his whistle. | :31:04. | :31:13. | |
Iceland have a free kick. They are in many respects living the dream, | :31:14. | :31:22. | |
but this is not the time the letterhead go into the clouds and to | :31:23. | :31:27. | |
take your eye off the challenge in hand. Long free kick towards the | :31:28. | :31:33. | |
edge of the penalty area. Little late on. Behind for the goalkick. | :31:34. | :31:40. | |
Watching the Hungary in the warm up. But one macro is on the side and | :31:41. | :31:45. | |
Zoltan Stieber on the left and they were putting in crosses for Priskin. | :31:46. | :31:52. | |
Dzsudzsak put in more crosses in the campaign then any player in any | :31:53. | :31:58. | |
other nation so he is the talisman to get the ball into the box. This | :31:59. | :32:09. | |
is number eight for Hungary, Nagy. It looks like a more attacking | :32:10. | :32:14. | |
formation, the Hungarians, to the one they employed against Austria. | :32:15. | :32:19. | |
Zoltan Gera play in further up the pitch and the man in possession, | :32:20. | :32:25. | |
Nagy, one defensive shield now in front of the ball whereas they had | :32:26. | :32:33. | |
two against Austria. 4-1, 4-1, really. A long throw from Ari | :32:34. | :32:42. | |
Skulason. Skulason again. That is Gera. Dzsudzsak off after this. Well | :32:43. | :32:54. | |
covered by Kari Arnason. Hungarian throw. Danger. Sigurdsson got the | :32:55. | :33:05. | |
cross, helped out his full-back and he covered it well. Kleinheisler | :33:06. | :33:15. | |
picking up, finding Gera, it is another throw. Now Icelandic ball. | :33:16. | :33:36. | |
Skulason. Ragnar Sigurdsson, for Iceland, who is 30 tomorrow. You can | :33:37. | :33:53. | |
just see over his left shoulder, Bernd Storck, he was on the end of a | :33:54. | :34:00. | |
dugout and you can see his assistant manager, Moller, who scored a | :34:01. | :34:03. | |
penalty against England in the final of Euro 96. | :34:04. | :34:17. | |
Salt and Giroud, Skulason with him. Zoltan Gera. Well covered by | :34:18. | :34:32. | |
Iceland. He has got more license this side today, Gera. A good run, | :34:33. | :34:37. | |
well picked out, and good run into the box and good defending from | :34:38. | :34:41. | |
Iceland. Kleinheisler looking to take over again. He impeded his own | :34:42. | :34:46. | |
man, Zoltan Stieber. Gera. Chasing that. And forcing Arnason to | :34:47. | :35:08. | |
put the ball out of play for the throw. | :35:09. | :35:16. | |
Gera. Dispossessed, card out for Hungary. And he turned 21 yesterday, | :35:17. | :35:32. | |
Nagy. A lot of their days in these two squads. The pattern was set | :35:33. | :35:37. | |
against Portugal, Iceland had 28% possession. The gay -- the way the | :35:38. | :35:41. | |
game started. He has done well, being chased here by Bjarnason. No | :35:42. | :35:52. | |
foul. He is the man, the number eight with the long hair, who scored | :35:53. | :35:59. | |
that famous goal, the first goal in tournament football. Hungary has | :36:00. | :36:02. | |
started well here, Robbie. When the ball gets played up to the big | :36:03. | :36:07. | |
centre forward, he has to get hold of it, Sigthorsson, bring his | :36:08. | :36:13. | |
team-mates into play. They keep losing the ball and it keeps coming | :36:14. | :36:20. | |
back at them at every occasion. A mighty scrap which ends with Iceland | :36:21. | :36:25. | |
being awarded a goalkick. This was a tussle and a half. He did well | :36:26. | :36:37. | |
there, Skulason. A very good ball in. Very, very good defending. Yes, | :36:38. | :36:48. | |
he did well to get his head onto that. Cleared away I22 macro. | :36:49. | :36:58. | |
Budapest by the way building a new stadium in readiness for the next | :36:59. | :37:02. | |
European Championships -- by Juhasz. They will be one of the host | :37:03. | :37:11. | |
Championships. Ball in the wards Lang. It hits Bjarnason and it comes | :37:12. | :37:20. | |
back onto the head of Lang. The clearance, Bjarnason here. Skulason. | :37:21. | :37:27. | |
The first opportunity Iceland have the go forward, they had three men | :37:28. | :37:32. | |
in the box. Bjarnason on the back post, that is where he got the goal | :37:33. | :37:36. | |
from against Portugal. Not scared to get in there. Decent attack from | :37:37. | :37:48. | |
Iceland. I think Portugal is very slow-paced, and I think it kind of | :37:49. | :37:51. | |
suited Iceland in that opening match. Hungary, they are injecting a | :37:52. | :37:57. | |
lot more pace into fair play than the Portuguese did in their game. -- | :37:58. | :37:59. | |
fair play. Kleinheisler scored one of the girls | :38:00. | :38:19. | |
in the play-off against Norway which got Hungary to these finals. -- | :38:20. | :38:26. | |
goals. Arnason will take this free kick for Iceland. Five blue shirts | :38:27. | :38:30. | |
on the edge of the Hungarian penalty area. That is put behind for a | :38:31. | :38:43. | |
corner. By Lang. Looking again for Kolbeinn Sigthorsson. Defended well, | :38:44. | :38:49. | |
important from set pieces. So many goals get scored from set pieces. | :38:50. | :38:54. | |
Get a good delivery, at your first corner. Gylfi Sigurdsson to take | :38:55. | :39:04. | |
this. Whipped him dangerously. Those in blue shirts left sucking their | :39:05. | :39:10. | |
cheeks because they were very close to getting a contract, almost onto | :39:11. | :39:16. | |
Gylfi Sigurdsson's corner. Gabor Kiraly under pressure. Great ball | :39:17. | :39:25. | |
into the box. Gunnarsson has a huge throw. Here it comes. Great pace on | :39:26. | :39:29. | |
that. Good header and a whooping header. Over the top of the | :39:30. | :39:43. | |
crossbar. From Bodvarsson. Into the box, a second header. He just cannot | :39:44. | :39:47. | |
keep on target. He has the power those neck muscles and keep the ball | :39:48. | :39:52. | |
down. Good start from Iceland, Steve. Yes, from both, it bodes | :39:53. | :39:57. | |
well. Nice pace and nice attacking intent. The rewards are so high, why | :39:58. | :40:00. | |
not go for them? Good running by Kleinheisler and | :40:01. | :40:35. | |
excellent control from an awkward ball dropping over his shoulder. | :40:36. | :40:45. | |
Kleinheisler, Gera. Dzsudzsak trying to report past Gylfi Sigurdsson. | :40:46. | :40:54. | |
Dangerous ball into the box. Arnason dealt with it. The flick on. Good | :40:55. | :41:04. | |
defending from Arnason on the back post. Big, strong physical presence | :41:05. | :41:10. | |
and he stuck to his task well, Arnason. 4-4- two, Iceland. You do | :41:11. | :41:19. | |
not see that very often in this day and age. They have got a good shape. | :41:20. | :41:26. | |
The two banks of four stay close together. A throw for Hungary. | :41:27. | :41:41. | |
Safely back to Halldorsson, who had tricky moments in the Portuguese | :41:42. | :41:48. | |
match. But not as many as you would have expected, you would have to | :41:49. | :41:57. | |
say. Gera coped well with that. Played neatly back into Zoltan | :41:58. | :42:07. | |
Stieber. Halldorsson making it his with Arnason threatening to get in | :42:08. | :42:11. | |
his way. Good linkup play down the left side. Only two men in the box, | :42:12. | :42:17. | |
Hungary. The bull catch for the goalkeeper. It is an astonishing | :42:18. | :42:22. | |
stadium. That's remarkable. It is my first time here and the roof takes | :42:23. | :42:25. | |
your breath away. Johann Gudmundsson quickly onto it | :42:26. | :43:00. | |
for Iceland. Back to Gunnarsson. A little bit wayward, but he got to | :43:01. | :43:07. | |
it, Skulason. That is a header from Bodvarsson which caught him slightly | :43:08. | :43:13. | |
on his toes. Bringing it down onto his chest, to bring the Swansea City | :43:14. | :43:20. | |
midfielder into the game, Sigurdsson. The ball is going over | :43:21. | :43:24. | |
his head one way, then the other. He is such an influential player in | :43:25. | :43:29. | |
this team. Can he get into the game? I know it is 13 minutes that have | :43:30. | :43:33. | |
gone but he has hardly had a touch it. The former Newcastle man here, | :43:34. | :43:42. | |
Kadar. Free kick, Hungary. A foul by Kari Arnason. He was too eager to | :43:43. | :43:56. | |
win the ball. In front of Priskin. Free kick now. Once again, you need | :43:57. | :44:02. | |
good delivery. Dzsudzsak can provide that. | :44:03. | :44:14. | |
Kleinheisler moves away from it and it will be Dzsudzsak to take this. | :44:15. | :44:29. | |
No threat, really on the goal of Halldorsson. Quite deep from the set | :44:30. | :44:34. | |
piece, the Icelandic team. A very deep starting position. You usually | :44:35. | :44:39. | |
see teams playing a higher line than that from a free kick so far out | :44:40. | :44:45. | |
wide. He scored 90 goals, Priskin. You remember that header for Ipswich | :44:46. | :44:51. | |
and you may remember him if you are a fan with QPR, Spurs, Derby. | :44:52. | :45:11. | |
Roland Juhasz. Dzsudzsak with a decent ball towards Kleinheisler. | :45:12. | :45:30. | |
Kleinheisler again. The Icelandic fans doing that scary chanting that | :45:31. | :45:34. | |
they do. And the other end. An hour before | :45:35. | :46:01. | |
kick-off there was a little bit of fighting between Hungarian fans and | :46:02. | :46:08. | |
police. The largest contingent of Hungarians, they wanted to get from | :46:09. | :46:14. | |
in behind the goal to your left hand side to the right where the bulk of | :46:15. | :46:18. | |
the fans are. They were wanting to climb over the walls and in the end | :46:19. | :46:24. | |
quite wisely the police thought it was probably a sensible decision | :46:25. | :46:33. | |
just to let them do it. The next level file will go in the not book | :46:34. | :46:41. | |
I'm sure. Zoltan Gera with that free kick. Priskin in the middle. The | :46:42. | :46:52. | |
shot from Dzsudzsak so well hit, the man who blocked it, Gunnarsson, has | :46:53. | :46:56. | |
gone down. But springs back to his feet. Coming in from that right-hand | :46:57. | :47:06. | |
side. He could come inside of his left foot, his left foot that time. | :47:07. | :47:15. | |
Good defending once again from the captain Gunnarsson. Kleinheisler. | :47:16. | :47:26. | |
Just could not get through the challenge. Kleinheisler looks a | :47:27. | :47:40. | |
decent player, the ginger haired midfielder for hungry. -- Hungary. I | :47:41. | :47:51. | |
do not think we will see the Icelandic full-backs get forward | :47:52. | :48:04. | |
that often. I think they will stay close to their centre halves and | :48:05. | :48:16. | |
keep that shape. Stieber might go through. Locked into the right-hand | :48:17. | :48:27. | |
side, probably a good decision. Sigurdsson for a Hungarian corner, | :48:28. | :48:30. | |
they look threatening, the Hungarians. Had to go out and | :48:31. | :48:40. | |
engage. Dzsudzsak on the left foot again. Good defending from | :48:41. | :48:54. | |
Sigurdsson. Dzsudzsak with this corner kick floated high. Headed | :48:55. | :49:01. | |
more up into the air then towards the goal by Juhasz. | :49:02. | :49:22. | |
Guzmics. Juhasz. Dzsudzsak seeing an awful lot of the ball. You could say | :49:23. | :49:37. | |
the same about Kleinheisler. That is a decent ball. Captain by Adam Lang. | :49:38. | :49:49. | |
All arriving at the back post. Gudmundsson, decent ball. Trying to | :49:50. | :50:04. | |
get the better of Adam Nagy. That is why he is in the Hungarian team, the | :50:05. | :50:11. | |
midfielder. He has to get across and cover that space. | :50:12. | :50:28. | |
The corner will be taken by Gudmundsson. Gudmundsson can have | :50:29. | :50:40. | |
another go. I really good cross. Well dealt with at the back post. | :50:41. | :50:48. | |
Bjarnason threatening. Skulason, just. Taken away from Priskin. It | :50:49. | :51:02. | |
was a fantastic header from the left-back. Mark King Bjarnason. The | :51:03. | :51:13. | |
ball came back and he did not race to get back, he stayed in his | :51:14. | :51:16. | |
position from the first set piece and for a defensive header. Zoltan | :51:17. | :51:22. | |
Gera. Guzmics. Halldorsson, was going to move to | :51:23. | :51:45. | |
Dutch football but almost straightaway dislocated his | :51:46. | :51:50. | |
shoulder. He has rarely played in Holland. | :51:51. | :52:02. | |
This is the worst playing surface I have seen at this tournament, it is | :52:03. | :52:09. | |
a bit patchy here and there. We have been to a lot of stadiums. Captain | :52:10. | :52:15. | |
fantastic condition and lovely to play on, but it does look a bit | :52:16. | :52:24. | |
patchy, a bit yellow in places. -- kept in fantastic condition. Adam | :52:25. | :52:41. | |
Nagy. Juhasz. It is a well organised Icelandic side. Arneson with the | :52:42. | :53:09. | |
clearance. Zoltan Gera. Neatly done. Gudmundsson. | :53:10. | :53:35. | |
Little flick but his strike partner know where near him. | :53:36. | :54:04. | |
Zoltan Gera, you could see what he was trying to achieve. Nice football | :54:05. | :54:11. | |
there from Hungary. Zoltan Gera at the heart of it. The final pass just | :54:12. | :54:19. | |
has not been there for either side. Hungary have had all the possession | :54:20. | :54:23. | |
but not one chance for either side after 24 minutes. Kleinheisler. Back | :54:24. | :54:48. | |
in two Priskin. Kleinheisler. Lots of energy, Kleinheisler, looking to | :54:49. | :54:51. | |
go forward every time. Having won the last game in the | :54:52. | :55:28. | |
tournament, hungry hoping to achieve something today that they have not | :55:29. | :55:31. | |
achieved for 50 years, back-to-back tournament victories. You have to go | :55:32. | :55:42. | |
back to 1966, they have never won back to back matches in the | :55:43. | :55:46. | |
tournament since. More history waiting to be made here. | :55:47. | :55:49. | |
Kleinheisler. They have got to do better, they | :55:50. | :56:10. | |
have got to get hold of the ball. It keeps coming back and there is | :56:11. | :56:18. | |
nothing more frustrating, to big centre forwards, you have got to try | :56:19. | :56:21. | |
to get hold of them. A bit of conversation going on | :56:22. | :56:57. | |
between the two Hungarians, the result is an Icelandic/. -- | :56:58. | :57:09. | |
Icelandic throw. Sigthorsson to bad Farson, that is better. Away by | :57:10. | :57:24. | |
Nagy, neatly. Skulason for Iceland. Nagy again. Quite a diminutive | :57:25. | :57:34. | |
little player. There he is giving it away this time. Nowhere near | :57:35. | :57:35. | |
Sigthorsson. Adam Nagy has caught the eye of a | :57:36. | :58:03. | |
few clubs and you can see why. He has been linked with bigger clubs in | :58:04. | :58:07. | |
the past as well. Juhasz for Hungary. Dzsudzsak. | :58:08. | :59:09. | |
Guzmics. Kleinheisler. Defensively Iceland are doing really well. No | :59:10. | :59:17. | |
space in between the lines. Sitting deep so they can get no runners in | :59:18. | :59:21. | |
behind them. They are doing well defensively so far. A nice early | :59:22. | :59:29. | |
touch into the path of Dzsudzsak. Sigurdsson comfortably away. | :59:30. | :59:57. | |
Dzsudzsak again, positive running, happy to carry the ball a long way. | :59:58. | :00:09. | |
Priskin seemed a bit leaden footed in the middle. He is dangerous on | :00:10. | :00:16. | |
his left foot. Priskin, you could see him having a go at Dzsudzsak. | :00:17. | :00:33. | |
The most expensive ever player for hungry, ?90 million. He also played | :00:34. | :00:41. | |
in Holland so there is pedigree there. Kleinheisler and other good | :00:42. | :00:47. | |
player. He plays for Werder Bremen. Ragnar | :00:48. | :01:02. | |
Sigurdsson, Gylfi Sigurdsson, no relation. It should not have reached | :01:03. | :01:09. | |
him and it has. And he makes the save to deny Gudmundsson. What an | :01:10. | :01:18. | |
opportunity for Gudmundsson. He has to score. What a touch it was from | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
Gylfi Sigurdsson outside his foot and round the corner and Gudmundsson | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
showed good strength. He has to open his body more. He has the whippet | :01:29. | :01:35. | |
around the tracksuit bottoms of Kiraly. He is off balance and he | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
just has to compose himself. He did not whippet with his leg. What an | :01:42. | :01:48. | |
opportunity. That should be 1-0, Iceland. Gudmundsson should score. | :01:49. | :01:56. | |
Kadar let off the hook because that was poor defending. Gylfi Sigurdsson | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
had a chance bilirubin in the game against Portugal, similar, which | :02:03. | :02:11. | |
Sigurdsson could not take. Long throw comes in again. It is headed | :02:12. | :02:19. | |
out by Zoltan Stieber. Good moments for Iceland. Gudmundsson with that | :02:20. | :02:30. | |
throw. It flew into the air. Headed away by Kadar. Cannot find | :02:31. | :02:38. | |
Bjarnason. Lang brings it away for Hungary. That is a good challenge by | :02:39. | :02:45. | |
Skulason. That ended the hopes of Dzsudzsak of getting him behind. -- | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
getting in. Gylfi Sigurdsson. That is a good | :02:51. | :03:15. | |
ball to Bjarnason. Now Gylfi Sigurdsson. Trying to find room for | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
the shot and he might have done so. He chose the wrong option, he was | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
trying to make it in the Bodvarsson thinking he had done enough to trick | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
the Hungarian defence. The shot might have been the good option in | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
the end, Dzsudzsak, this could be dangerous. Kleinheisler. And he just | :03:34. | :03:43. | |
got to it, Sigurdsson, he had to be so precise. Good stuff from both | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
sides, great challenge by Sigurdsson, he sees the danger. | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
Dzsudzsak went for the one, two. Fantastic tackle. | :03:53. | :04:05. | |
Kleinheisler with this corner kick. Hit back by Lang. Kleinheisler once | :04:06. | :04:18. | |
again, wide shirts inside. Kleinheisler, whistling across the | :04:19. | :04:28. | |
face of the goal. The safety. Dzsudzsak and Kleinheisler for | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
Hungary started well, trying to whip it into the far corner. I think he | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
was going for the far corner, I do not think it was a cross. He will | :04:36. | :04:43. | |
take over on his owner, Heimir Hallgrimsson, the 49-year-old joint | :04:44. | :04:50. | |
coach. Lens will finally stepped down. Lars Lagerback has taken teams | :04:51. | :04:59. | |
to sever major Championship finals. Sweden and also Nigeria in 2010. He | :05:00. | :05:07. | |
himself, Lars Lagerback, was a joint manager in the early days with Tommy | :05:08. | :05:14. | |
Soderberg of Sweden. Icelandic free kick, Gylfi Sigurdsson is very | :05:15. | :05:21. | |
capable. He is going into the game, but touchers, skill round the box. | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
-- some good touches. Everybody back for Hungary. | :05:26. | :05:35. | |
Sigurdsson into the box. A clearing header it was, Gera. A very good | :05:36. | :05:45. | |
cleared header from Lang, the right back. Found himself in the centre of | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
position. Very important header. Lang will be close level presuming | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
he does not leave the Hungarian top flight next season. | :05:56. | :06:05. | |
Saevarsson for Iceland. That is better from the centre forward. | :06:06. | :06:33. | |
Skulason making a run in from left-back. Bjarnason finds Skulason. | :06:34. | :06:43. | |
He cannot get across in. He ventured forward, though. The left-back. | :06:44. | :06:50. | |
Skulason. But with two big centre forward in the box, you want better | :06:51. | :06:57. | |
delivery. At least he is showing the desire to get forward and make runs | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
and try and get crosses into the box. | :07:01. | :07:17. | |
A great list of venues for these Icelandic players. Doing a tour in | :07:18. | :07:29. | |
France, starting off in Saint Nechim which is the most iconic. This is | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
Bodvarsson for Iceland. -- Saint Etienne. It well covered corner. | :07:36. | :07:43. | |
Very, very good from Iceland once again. A great first touch. Good | :07:44. | :07:51. | |
ball from Sigurdsson. He has gone for that near post. But it was good | :07:52. | :08:00. | |
to defending. The tour from France goes from here, Marseille, arguably | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
the best stadium of the lot, to St Denis for the final and who knows | :08:07. | :08:13. | |
where? Corner kick for Iceland, Gunnarsson. The referee has not | :08:14. | :08:23. | |
blown and then he gives a penalty. Gunnarsson went over. Dropped it. | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
Many times under those circumstances, the decision goals | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
the goalkeeper's way. On that occasion, it did not and Gunnarsson | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
went over and the Russian referee says, penalty. He comes across, he | :08:38. | :08:44. | |
has dropped that, that is the correct decision. We see Gunnarsson, | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
he drops it, that is no foul. The ball runs at the feet of Gunnarsson | :08:51. | :09:01. | |
and the referee gives a penalty. Gabor Kiraly now faces a penalty | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
from Gylfi Sigurdsson. Is Iceland about to take the lead | :09:05. | :09:20. | |
Chris DiMarco Gylfi Sigurdsson against Gabor Kiraly, from 12 yards. | :09:21. | :09:30. | |
-- Gylfi Sigurdsson. Sigurdsson, 1-0 Iceland! | :09:31. | :09:46. | |
Good penalty. Fantastic penalty. He smashed it into the bottom corner. | :09:47. | :09:54. | |
Interesting from the goalkeeper, Kiraly, he stood there motionless, | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
his arms behind his back. Just seeing the penalty again. | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
Gunnarsson, that is not a penalty for me, I am sorry. He has gone to | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
ground too easily. He has whipped a penalty into the bottom corner. 1-0, | :10:10. | :10:17. | |
Iceland. And in the last ten minutes, they have deserved the lead | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
but I do not think it was a penalty, I think Gunnarsson went down far too | :10:22. | :10:30. | |
easily. Well, it was Kadar with the challenge on Gudmundsson. The | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
referee was in no doubt and Gylfi Sigurdsson has scored for Iceland. | :10:35. | :10:43. | |
These fantastic Euros seem to get better and better. He either scored | :10:44. | :10:51. | |
or assisted half their goals in qualifying. And he has put them in | :10:52. | :10:57. | |
front here in Marseille. Did you feel that Kiraly was fouled? No, I | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
thought that he dropped the ball, no question in my mind. The penalty. I | :11:03. | :11:08. | |
thought the captain Gunnarsson went to ground far too easily from the | :11:09. | :11:15. | |
challenge from Kadar who was half pulling out of it so I do not think | :11:16. | :11:21. | |
it was a penalty at all! Now the test for Hungary, the first Gold | :11:22. | :11:23. | |
they have conceded in brands in these finals. -- -- Kleinheisler. | :11:24. | :11:38. | |
Left in a heap by the challenge of Gudmundsson. The referee is talking | :11:39. | :11:44. | |
to him and he gets the yellow card out for Gudmundsson. | :11:45. | :11:56. | |
He will be disappointed not have taken that earlier on. He is a | :11:57. | :12:05. | |
little lamb in the face of that. He just tries to hold on. Not sure that | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
is a yellow card. But he was given one by the referee. Nagy forward, | :12:10. | :12:23. | |
Dzsudzsak, the ball behind Gera. Arnason with the clearance. | :12:24. | :12:30. | |
Bodvarsson has done well. Trying to find Bjarnason, he could not. He got | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
hold the ball, the centre forward. In the last ten minutes. That has | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
allowed Iceland to get up the pitch. Great chances. | :12:41. | :12:48. | |
Zoltan Stieber, Gera. Neatly taken away by Gylfi Sigurdsson, the | :12:49. | :13:31. | |
scorer. Away to his left-hand side, Bjarnason during the challenge of | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
Guzmics and I am surprised a free kick has not been given. It has not. | :13:38. | :13:44. | |
I thought it was a good challenge, Guzmics on Bodvarsson. He saw the | :13:45. | :13:47. | |
danger and he tackled with his left foot. Kadar popped the ball out to | :13:48. | :13:58. | |
play. We might disagree on this, Steve! I thought it was a good | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
tackle but I like to tackle. I was not good on the ball but I did like | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
the tackle! He made contact with the man first and he took his leg out in | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
order to make contact with the ball. You are the master of the dark arts! | :14:14. | :14:20. | |
Hungary. Trailing by 1-0. Kadar, cleared. | :14:21. | :14:39. | |
Bodvarsson. The challenge by Guzmics and again, no foul was awarded by | :14:40. | :14:46. | |
the referee. They keep their shape so well defensively, Iceland. The | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
two set midfielders stay in the centre and they do not go tearing | :14:52. | :14:54. | |
out to the left, they let the wingers do that. Bjarnason, they | :14:55. | :15:00. | |
stay in their shape, Gudmundsson. Very good defensive work, well | :15:01. | :15:06. | |
drilled. That is hours of work on the training ground and the two big | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
centre forwards, one is dropping the midfield now. They do it very, very | :15:11. | :15:18. | |
well. Look at Sigurdsson. -- Sigthorsson. | :15:19. | :15:26. | |
That is good play. Just one added minute at the end of the half. | :15:27. | :15:34. | |
Zoltan Gera, the ball has gone out of play. Hungary to throw. What a | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
trip this has been. Kleinheisler. Good challenge. | :15:41. | :16:06. | |
Skulason to get away from him. I reckon they will hear the whistle in | :16:07. | :16:08. | |
about 32nd. -- 30 seconds. The referee blows his whistle. If it | :16:09. | :16:36. | |
stays like this Iceland have virtually assured qualification to | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
the last 16 of the European Championships. Gylfi Sigurdsson from | :16:42. | :16:46. | |
the penalty spot with the only goal of the first half, five minutes | :16:47. | :16:50. | |
before the end of that, at half-time in the Stade Velodrome in Marseille. | :16:51. | :16:59. | |
Thank you to Stephen Robey. After half an hour we thought Iceland were | :17:00. | :17:04. | |
not going to score and Hungary were playing the better football. They | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
definitely wear, it is an open game end to end and Hungary and a lot | :17:11. | :17:14. | |
better for all but strangely Iceland had all the chances of top Hungary | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
have been on there since Iceland scored. I think it rattled them, | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
they felt comfortable, they thought they were the dominant side in the | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
game but now they have got a mountain to climb after having 70% | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
recession. Especially when Iceland have been so solid. They have been | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
solid enough, but what they have done well, when they have got the | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
chance to get the ball in the Hungarian box, they have caused them | :17:43. | :17:47. | |
problems. But Hungary have not helped with the goalkeeping | :17:48. | :17:53. | |
situation. He caused their own downfall. He certainly contributed. | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
This was strange early in the game, I have never seen this before, | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
although forwards and attacking players between him the goal. To me | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
that says I'm not comfortable, I'm nervous. He completely flaps at it. | :18:10. | :18:14. | |
Perhaps overexcited with the occasion. What is he doing, where is | :18:15. | :18:25. | |
his head, it is sloppy. All of a sudden they're the attack. This | :18:26. | :18:34. | |
leads to the corner that they get the penalty from. He has got to | :18:35. | :18:40. | |
catch that, it is not difficult. I agree with Robbie in commentary, it | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
is a harsh decision to give a penalty but they would not have been | :18:47. | :18:53. | |
in that position... If you cannot catch it cleanly you have got to | :18:54. | :19:01. | |
make a decision as a goalkeeper. If you're uncomfortable you have just | :19:02. | :19:07. | |
got to punch it. I did not think it was a penalty, I thought it was | :19:08. | :19:18. | |
soft, Tamas Kadar, on Gunnarsson. Did Gunnarsson win it rather than | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
Tamas Kadar? That is a diplomatic way of saying that he manipulated | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
the rules somewhat. They have been similar to how they were against | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
Portugal, they'd dug in at times and showed great mentality and a desire | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
to stay in the game. Now they're one goal up and they have something to | :19:41. | :19:46. | |
hold onto. But you said Iceland had chances. They had several good | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
chances. This the long throw coming in. Bad Farson, getting underneath | :19:53. | :19:59. | |
it, cannot quite get over the ball to direct it. It might just have | :20:00. | :20:08. | |
dipped under the bar. This is Gudmundsson, shows good strength and | :20:09. | :20:13. | |
that is a decent chance. The goalkeeper came out to narrow the | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
angle and saved it with his feet. Another good chance. And a battle in | :20:18. | :20:30. | |
the studio over whether to play Dzsudzsak for the praise. I think he | :20:31. | :20:37. | |
has been dangerous. If Hungary are to get back in the game is going to | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
be through Dzsudzsak. Plays down the right, likes to come in on his left, | :20:44. | :20:49. | |
the favoured of his feet. He controls it really well and he is | :20:50. | :20:56. | |
allowed to run inside, keeps going. And strikes it really well. But | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
Gunnarsson gets his way in between the shot and the goal. Should have | :21:02. | :21:10. | |
rolled that with a better wait, a bit of a half shot. It may have come | :21:11. | :21:16. | |
to something. Again inside and I like baseball, the centre forward | :21:17. | :21:23. | |
not really in sync with him. He is ahead of a lot of the others. In | :21:24. | :21:29. | |
terms of seeing things, the others are not quite on his wavelength. | :21:30. | :21:41. | |
Nice linkup with my man! They are the energy in the side. | :21:42. | :21:50. | |
Dzsudzsak is the most expensive player in Hungarian history. Would | :21:51. | :21:56. | |
you be inclined to play him on the inside? Do not let him come inside | :21:57. | :22:03. | |
at favourite left foot. And if they keep doing that in the second half, | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
that is where the opportunities will come for Hungary. Of course this | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
matches being played in Marseille, once home to one of our own. Chris | :22:12. | :22:17. | |
Waddle made quite an impression down on the south coast of France. | :22:18. | :22:31. | |
I was really happy but at the back of my mind was Champions League, I | :22:32. | :22:38. | |
had always wanted to play in European competitions. Before I | :22:39. | :22:44. | |
signed for Marseille I used to talk about signing for Tottenham with | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
Paul Gascoigne. I remember signing the deal and a week later the | :22:51. | :22:57. | |
Marseille thing just happened. I remember the next England game and I | :22:58. | :23:01. | |
joined up with Gary and I can't release said what he said to me but | :23:02. | :23:15. | |
he was not happy! -- really say. I was scared more than anything, a | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
bit nervous about moving abroad. But I did it, it was another level I | :23:20. | :23:27. | |
wanted to play at. I lived in a hotel, I brought my wife and | :23:28. | :23:31. | |
one-year-old daughter over so it was difficult on the family. The | :23:32. | :23:35. | |
language was an absolute nightmare, I could count to ten and that was | :23:36. | :23:41. | |
it. The shop owner where we used to go and ask for bread, people serving | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
as must have thought I'm sure this guy is death because he cannot | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
speak. I used to just point at everything. It really got to me. The | :23:51. | :23:59. | |
key when I got out of the hotel after three months I moved into a | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
house which we rented. I remember saying to my wife, when I opened the | :24:04. | :24:07. | |
door of the house, I said it starts from here. This was on the Monday | :24:08. | :24:13. | |
and on Friday night we played Paris Saint Germain at home and I scored a | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
goal, flicked it over the goalkeeper and into the back of the net. From | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
that moment that Friday night, especially against our big rivals, | :24:26. | :24:33. | |
Mike career arrived. I grew up supporting Marseille and 40 was | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
doing with that team, stuff I had never seen before. He could pass | :24:39. | :24:44. | |
someone without touching the ball. He's just a legend with Marseille. | :24:45. | :24:52. | |
If you dream of playing a certain style of football and asked to do a | :24:53. | :24:55. | |
certain job on the pitch, this was it. It suited me down to the ground, | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
do what you want when you get the ball. And with a smile on your face. | :25:01. | :25:14. | |
I tried to be a bit like the French and just did not work the pink | :25:15. | :25:20. | |
cardigan not very English. I have got to apologise for what I was | :25:21. | :25:27. | |
wearing. I went back for the England game, it was nice to still be | :25:28. | :25:33. | |
recognised. I left the club 24 years ago. I got a great reception, I have | :25:34. | :25:39. | |
always got on well with the fans and Marseille is no different. It was | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
worth that piece just for the haircut and the cardigan! Being very | :25:46. | :25:52. | |
self-deprecating when he said he got a nice welcome because I was with | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
him in Marseille and he was mobbed everywhere. You could understand | :25:58. | :25:59. | |
when you see some of the footage. I do not need to see the footage to | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
know how wonderful he was. I played with him at Sheffield Wednesday as a | :26:06. | :26:12. | |
teenager. We did OK in that game and he did not impress me too much, he | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
must have been annoyed at these young lads taking the make of it. In | :26:17. | :26:21. | |
the home game after ten minutes I went to close him down, he | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
absolutely killed me. It was a masterclass. Then I realised I was | :26:28. | :26:32. | |
in the presence of someone really special. He is passionate about how | :26:33. | :26:36. | |
he learned so much from being in Marseille. Do you wish more British | :26:37. | :26:41. | |
footballers played abroad like Gareth Bale is now? Each to their | :26:42. | :26:46. | |
own, I could never play abroad because I was not accustomed to the | :26:47. | :26:52. | |
weather. I used to get burnt! I possibly could have played in a | :26:53. | :26:57. | |
climate where it was not so hot but generally I would have struggled. I | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
hate playing in the heat. But Chris Waddle, I spent some time with him | :27:03. | :27:08. | |
in the first ten days or so over here and he is a fantastic guy to be | :27:09. | :27:12. | |
around. Very experienced, a lot of stories about Paul Gascoigne, the | :27:13. | :27:18. | |
World Cup, England, I was talking about French football and it has | :27:19. | :27:28. | |
been great to be around him. I had one small opportunity, an | :27:29. | :27:37. | |
opportunity to go to France but it did not happen. But I do regret it. | :27:38. | :27:42. | |
Do you think your game would have changed customer I think I would | :27:43. | :27:45. | |
have got it more quickly and learned more. I think any player who gets | :27:46. | :27:50. | |
the opportunity, not just from the football perspective from the | :27:51. | :27:54. | |
lifestyle perspective as well, should take it. Just to bring you | :27:55. | :27:58. | |
up-to-date with the latest from the England camp for the Jamie Vardy | :27:59. | :28:03. | |
spoke this afternoon. I thought the performance overall was very good. | :28:04. | :28:12. | |
Created a lot of chances. Did not really deserve to be losing at | :28:13. | :28:16. | |
half-time. So we needed to carry on doing what we were doing and the | :28:17. | :28:20. | |
goals would come. Competition for places is good with the squad and we | :28:21. | :28:26. | |
can use different systems as well. We have 23 and it is a team game and | :28:27. | :28:31. | |
if something is not working you have to bring someone off the bench. | :28:32. | :28:35. | |
Everyone is ready and waiting to make an impact. If that needs to | :28:36. | :28:41. | |
happen in the next game then so be it. It was an unbelievable feeling | :28:42. | :28:45. | |
to get the goal as well to bring it back level. The fans, the atmosphere | :28:46. | :28:51. | |
they brought to the stadium was unbelievable. We are all here for a | :28:52. | :28:57. | |
reason. We just take each game as it comes. And just fully focus on | :28:58. | :29:05. | |
Monday night and hope we can win. England and Wales play their final | :29:06. | :29:08. | |
group game is on Monday. We have highlights of both on BBC One at | :29:09. | :29:15. | |
10:45pm. Live commentary on 5 live. Later at the other game in the | :29:16. | :29:19. | |
group, Portugal and against Austria and all the build here on BBC One | :29:20. | :29:23. | |
from 7:30pm. Tomorrow Switzerland playing France, 7:30pm again. And | :29:24. | :29:31. | |
you can download the sport app and set up goal alerts. If you are a | :29:32. | :29:38. | |
younger viewer you might want to watch out for this. | :29:39. | :29:44. | |
We have brand-new drama on and off the pitch. Come on, Jamie! Watch now | :29:45. | :29:58. | |
on the BBC iPlayer. Hungary already back out in | :29:59. | :30:06. | |
Marseille. Their football needs to stay the same but just find a bit | :30:07. | :30:12. | |
more cutting edge. Just find more cutting edge. I'm surprised they | :30:13. | :30:14. | |
made no change. Because the goalkeeper, his confidence will be | :30:15. | :30:17. | |
shot to bits. Have they got anybody capable? That | :30:18. | :30:29. | |
is the question. He is the number one goalkeeper. You two have both | :30:30. | :30:36. | |
put him away! Back to Robbie and Steve Wilson in Marseille. | :30:37. | :30:41. | |
Hungary about to get the second half under way. Their second choice | :30:42. | :30:50. | |
goalkeeper used to be at Liverpool and had spells with Tranmere and | :30:51. | :30:53. | |
Hull City and will play in the Bundesliga next season with Leipzig | :30:54. | :30:58. | |
and has been preferred to add Bob Dunn who is still at Liverpool but | :30:59. | :31:02. | |
not for long if they have their choice -- to add Bob Dunn. So they | :31:03. | :31:10. | |
are the alternatives if Danny Murphy had been the Hungary manager! It is | :31:11. | :31:19. | |
Iceland leading by 1-0. And 45 minutes perhaps away from getting | :31:20. | :31:23. | |
one foot very firmly planted, if not mathematically guaranteed, a place | :31:24. | :31:29. | |
in the last 16 of the European Championship. The referee from | :31:30. | :31:34. | |
Russia gets the second half under way with Hungary playing from right | :31:35. | :31:44. | |
to left. A good looking ball towards Kleinheisler. Gera. Hungary kicking | :31:45. | :31:53. | |
towards the end the majority of their fans are seated, but not many. | :31:54. | :32:01. | |
Robbie, no changes at half-time and why would Iceland change anything? | :32:02. | :32:05. | |
They would not, I agree with John Hartson. Macro -- one needs to get | :32:06. | :32:12. | |
the ball to Dzsudzsak, he looked lively inside his left foot. | :32:13. | :32:19. | |
Dash-macro one. And Priskin hardly had a touch of the ball so a lot to | :32:20. | :32:30. | |
do for Hungary in the second half. This is a country that have not | :32:31. | :32:33. | |
qualified, Hungary, for in major finals as the World Cup of 1986. 30 | :32:34. | :32:41. | |
years ago. They came into this game knowing a win against Iceland would | :32:42. | :32:45. | |
take them guaranteed out of the group. Now, that is an opportunity | :32:46. | :32:50. | |
and at the moment it slipping through their fingers. No disrespect | :32:51. | :32:54. | |
to Iceland, but you would take that. Hungary not taking that chance at | :32:55. | :33:04. | |
the moment. I think everyone has agreed, having seen the incident | :33:05. | :33:07. | |
that led to the penalty, that Kiraly was not fouled. And perhaps | :33:08. | :33:17. | |
Gudmundsson was not either. Good coverage by Ragnar Sigurdsson. He | :33:18. | :33:21. | |
did that well in the first half and he has started the second half well, | :33:22. | :33:27. | |
he has covered exceptionally well. Kleinheisler here. Gera. The ball | :33:28. | :33:39. | |
into the box towards Priskin who nearly got a head on that. Good ball | :33:40. | :33:52. | |
in from Kadar and good position once again from Sigurdsson. Priskin, not | :33:53. | :33:58. | |
sure it is a foul, I think it is a genuine attempts to play a ball and | :33:59. | :34:03. | |
good defending from Sigurdsson. The referee gives a free kick. | :34:04. | :34:13. | |
Gera almost caught by Gylfi Sigurdsson, helping out. Free kick, | :34:14. | :34:31. | |
Hungary. Kadar. Zoltan Stieber. Showing good | :34:32. | :35:06. | |
turn of pace. Zoltan Stieber. Kleinheisler. The card is coming out | :35:07. | :35:16. | |
here. It is not the card, I've think it is the spray, I thought the | :35:17. | :35:20. | |
referee had reached for his card. It was a foul from the captain, | :35:21. | :35:32. | |
Gunnarsson, one Kleinheisler. I think the high challenge missed and | :35:33. | :35:40. | |
the foot landed on his boot. Dzsudzsak with this, for Hungary. | :35:41. | :36:03. | |
Dzsudzsak signalling back. Gera, Kleinheisler. Not a bad routine but | :36:04. | :36:13. | |
at the end of it, it was not great from Kleinheisler. Very well worked. | :36:14. | :36:19. | |
I think Kleinheisler from that ball back to him would want to hit it | :36:20. | :36:23. | |
first time. There was too much pace on it and he had to control from his | :36:24. | :36:28. | |
right and get onto his left. It would be nice though it was set for | :36:29. | :36:35. | |
himself he could hit it first time. -- if it was set for him so that he | :36:36. | :36:42. | |
could hit it first time. Nice work for Kleinheisler. Dzsudzsak wants it | :36:43. | :36:46. | |
and that is where he tried to put it but he was well off the mark with | :36:47. | :36:51. | |
the clearance. More energy and pace with the tackle in the opening five | :36:52. | :36:53. | |
minutes of the second half from Hungary. The energy must have had a | :36:54. | :36:58. | |
go at them at half-time. More movement and more pace about the | :36:59. | :37:02. | |
attack so early on in the second-half. Guzmics. Kadar, Gera. | :37:03. | :37:12. | |
And the pressure forced him into the error. I wonder if we will see the | :37:13. | :37:23. | |
Hungarian-Serbian border is warming up, but I wonder whether we will see | :37:24. | :37:32. | |
Eidur Gudjohnsen coming on at some point in this tournament for | :37:33. | :37:37. | |
Iceland. His father scored against Hungary in a World Cup qualifier in | :37:38. | :37:49. | |
1993. That is a foul. From Gunnarsson. Played against | :37:50. | :37:59. | |
Gunnarsson on a couple of occasions and he works so hard. He has got | :38:00. | :38:04. | |
good energy and he is tenacious and he loves tackle. He is doing a good | :38:05. | :38:10. | |
job but this side. Andy Goode job for Cardiff, for the last five | :38:11. | :38:12. | |
seasons -- and eight good. Trying to use the width of the pitch | :38:13. | :39:05. | |
as as much as possible, Lang wins the throw-in. Skulason with the | :39:06. | :39:16. | |
clearance, making sure it does not reach Priskin. It has, the Gera. -- | :39:17. | :39:27. | |
it has gone to Gera. Zoltan Stieber, Kleinheisler. Kadar. Back in, you | :39:28. | :39:37. | |
goes down and is immediately told to get up, Zoltan Stieber. Complaints | :39:38. | :39:42. | |
from the Hungarians behind the goal. Arnason with the challenge. | :39:43. | :39:54. | |
Skulason caught in possession by Lang. Kleinheisler tries to wriggle | :39:55. | :40:05. | |
through and not helped by the presence of Zoltan Stieber. Hungary | :40:06. | :40:15. | |
really trying to impose themselves on the second-half. So many | :40:16. | :40:21. | |
Icelandic bodies around the 18 yard area, there was around it. Nice | :40:22. | :40:26. | |
little dummy if he meant it. He has got it back now, Dzsudzsak. Gylfi | :40:27. | :40:34. | |
Sigurdsson and the strong challenge from Ragnar Sigurdsson took it away | :40:35. | :40:43. | |
from him. Bjarnason. That is why you want the big centre forward to do | :40:44. | :40:48. | |
that. That is the challenge. He needs to be stronger. Zoltan | :40:49. | :40:56. | |
Stieber, Arnason, tight to him. I think the referee got that right. | :40:57. | :41:04. | |
The long long throw, Gunnarsson. Towards Bodvarsson. By Juhasz. | :41:05. | :41:23. | |
Zoltan Stieber, Kleinheisler. Bodvarsson sees Gudmundsson out | :41:24. | :41:28. | |
opposition and he builds on and he keeps the shape of the team. | :41:29. | :41:33. | |
Gudmundsson stays up and he works so hard to get back on the right-hand | :41:34. | :41:35. | |
side. Adam Nagy for Hungary, a goal down | :41:36. | :42:00. | |
in Marseille. Bjarnason. I think he knew that Gudmundsson had advanced | :42:01. | :42:06. | |
so he had to keep desertion. They have got a free kick here, a Gylfi | :42:07. | :42:16. | |
Sigurdsson foul. Gera on Sigurdsson who took away that penalty. Great | :42:17. | :42:19. | |
composure. Those blue crowds run their feet. | :42:20. | :42:40. | |
Iceland have a free kick here to be taken by Ari Skulason. Bodvarsson. | :42:41. | :42:50. | |
It was a perfect opportunity. You can see it. Left leg in the air | :42:51. | :42:55. | |
burst followed by the right but it came off his toe. Apologising to his | :42:56. | :43:04. | |
goalkeeper, Halldorsson. Hungary have a throw in here. Things going | :43:05. | :43:11. | |
well for Iceland but not that well for Iceland as Bodvarsson was going | :43:12. | :43:15. | |
to convert a second with a spectacular overhead. Nicely done, | :43:16. | :43:24. | |
Hungary. Time to pick out the ball. He dealt with it. They have all the | :43:25. | :43:29. | |
time in the world to pick out the ball. Four Hungarian players in the | :43:30. | :43:34. | |
box and he does not pick any of them out. Not much movement for him, | :43:35. | :43:38. | |
Priskin when the box and he does not pick any of them out. Not much | :43:39. | :43:40. | |
movement for him, Priskin went near post. Five in the Icelandic penalty | :43:41. | :43:46. | |
area as the corner comes in headed out by Sigthorsson, at goofy | :43:47. | :43:50. | |
Sigurdsson trying to get underneath it. Cleared away by Nagy. Almost | :43:51. | :44:02. | |
caught in possession. Guzmics. Bjarnason, away. Kleinheisler. | :44:03. | :44:27. | |
Nagy. Kleinheisler. He turns away. Disappointed with the shot. Good | :44:28. | :44:39. | |
pressure from Hungary. With his right foot. Kleinheisler. Miles over | :44:40. | :44:45. | |
the bar. Difficult side to break down. Iceland. UCB overhead kick | :44:46. | :44:53. | |
coming off his toe -- UC the overhead. Difficult technique and | :44:54. | :44:58. | |
you have to be a good way to do that and I never got the hang of it | :44:59. | :45:00. | |
either! -- player. Zoltan Gera. Priskin. Hungary have | :45:01. | :45:27. | |
quality in the midfield. But the ball has not quite been there for | :45:28. | :45:37. | |
all that. Just caught out of position. Sigurdsson, he's offside. | :45:38. | :45:49. | |
It would not have counted. And intelligent run from Gylfi | :45:50. | :45:56. | |
Sigurdsson. The reverse pass. I have got to say that he was onside, he | :45:57. | :46:02. | |
made a good run. Sigthorsson should have had the target. Wrong decision | :46:03. | :46:13. | |
from the linesman. They look far more dangerous on the counterattack | :46:14. | :46:16. | |
them Hungary. -- Dan Hungary. Dzsudzsak trying to get involved in | :46:17. | :46:39. | |
the game. He has not seen as much of the ball as he would have liked in | :46:40. | :46:44. | |
the second half. Dzsudzsak on the left-hand side, Stieber on the | :46:45. | :46:49. | |
right. Dzsudzsak was so dangerous in the first half. | :46:50. | :47:02. | |
Putting crosses in for Priskin. Iceland still holding this precious | :47:03. | :47:20. | |
lead from the Gylfi Sigurdsson penalty. | :47:21. | :47:38. | |
Dzsudzsak with the throw in for Hungary. Tamas Kadar. | :47:39. | :47:55. | |
It is a poor ball. He does not look impressed at the moment, Bernd | :47:56. | :48:12. | |
Storck. Suffered just two defeats in his ten games in charge prior to | :48:13. | :48:18. | |
this. Iceland had only won three of their last 12 matches coming to the | :48:19. | :48:28. | |
tournament. They have beaten Finland, Greece and Lichtenstein. | :48:29. | :48:33. | |
The first substitution coming on. Hungary are going to make at least | :48:34. | :49:04. | |
one change. Nagy. Hungary have dominated possession for the first | :49:05. | :49:11. | |
17 minutes of this second half. Halldorsson has not had to make a | :49:12. | :49:26. | |
save. Zoltan Gera. Dzsudzsak. Kleinheisler, almost knocked off. | :49:27. | :49:33. | |
Kleinheisler still going, the dangerous run until Sigurdsson got a | :49:34. | :49:42. | |
foot in. Just on the wrong foot. Look at the numbers back, or keeping | :49:43. | :49:49. | |
their shape. Sigurdsson from way inside his own half. A very | :49:50. | :49:58. | |
audacious attempt. Priskin, there could the danger here. -- could be. | :49:59. | :50:10. | |
Helped on by Sigthorsson. Keeps coming back at the blue shirts that | :50:11. | :50:19. | |
they are dealing with it so far. Zoltan Gera. Clever! Smashed away by | :50:20. | :50:36. | |
school arson. -- school arson. Trying to keep on the front foot. | :50:37. | :50:42. | |
Nagy trying to wriggle through again. Look at the numbers back. | :50:43. | :50:49. | |
Wave after wave from Hungary. Iceland hanging on all of the | :50:50. | :50:59. | |
sudden. Nagy, Zoltan Gera. Good tackle by you of Sigurdsson. | :51:00. | :51:07. | |
Kleinheisler, fouled by Sigurdsson. Free kick to Hungary. And the queue | :51:08. | :51:23. | |
for three changes. Gunnarsson being replaced. | :51:24. | :51:39. | |
Hungary have made two changes. Nikolic has come on. | :51:40. | :52:08. | |
Just about grabbed at the second attempt by Halldorsson. He did not | :52:09. | :52:17. | |
enjoy that much. The keepers stood still. Gathered at the second | :52:18. | :52:30. | |
attempt. The ball did move around a lot. Who in this tournament of | :52:31. | :52:36. | |
substitutions paying off will benefit from the changes made here, | :52:37. | :52:50. | |
is that going to work for Hungary with Bode? | :52:51. | :53:03. | |
We have seen substitutions having an impact on the games in this | :53:04. | :53:12. | |
tournament. And a lot of goals in the last five minutes. You have got | :53:13. | :53:17. | |
to be brave and try to get up the pitch. It is hard but the more you | :53:18. | :53:24. | |
drop a eventually won will drop and we have seen that with England | :53:25. | :53:31. | |
against Wales. The pressure. Getting the winning goal through Sturge and | :53:32. | :53:34. | |
deservedly so. -- Daniel Sturridge. Tamas Kadar. Dzsudzsak. Dangerous | :53:35. | :53:58. | |
when he cuts in from out there. Here is Bode, nice turn for a big fellow. | :53:59. | :54:06. | |
Kleinheisler, Sigurdsson goes down and a free kick to Iceland. | :54:07. | :54:14. | |
Bjarnason has done well all afternoon tracking back and getting | :54:15. | :54:19. | |
himself in areas where he can affect the play. He found himself at the | :54:20. | :54:24. | |
edge of the box, cleared the danger and then Sigurdsson with the free | :54:25. | :54:36. | |
kick. Sigurdsson. Alfredsson for Iceland. Good defending by him. | :54:37. | :54:59. | |
Playing alongside Sigurdsson. We will shortly see a striker who came | :55:00. | :55:11. | |
on against Portugal. Bottas and going | :55:12. | :55:11. | |
off, he has done OK today. Linked up with Sigthorsson. Standing ovation | :55:12. | :55:20. | |
from the Icelandic fan. Bud Farson has worked hard. He is replaced by | :55:21. | :55:33. | |
Finnbogason. He now plays in Germany. He will play up front with | :55:34. | :55:47. | |
Sigthorsson. Flicked on by Sigthorsson. Kleinheisler trying to | :55:48. | :55:53. | |
make a nuisance of himself. Sigurdsson did well. A great run but | :55:54. | :56:03. | |
the past did not find Tim Saevarsson. -- find him. Has seen | :56:04. | :56:21. | |
the danger. Covered well and this Icelandic side work so hard for each | :56:22. | :56:24. | |
other. Alfredsson gives up the chase. | :56:25. | :56:51. | |
Caught on the wrong foot, Adam Lang, but helped out by the clearance of | :56:52. | :57:00. | |
Juhasz. That was careless and he is annoyed with himself. Hungary throw. | :57:01. | :57:10. | |
I did not see much of that, blonde midfielders giving the ball away, in | :57:11. | :57:22. | |
my time! Tamas Kadar to Nikolic. Zoltan Gera. Good ball. Dzsudzsak | :57:23. | :57:37. | |
here, a dangerous cross, put behind by school arson. Up to the back post | :57:38. | :57:48. | |
from Dzsudzsak, nowhere near it. Halldorsson, good defending on the | :57:49. | :57:57. | |
back post. A corner for Kleinheisler and all hands on deck Nile for | :57:58. | :58:05. | |
Iceland. They might break here. Finnbogason, ran straight into Nagy. | :58:06. | :58:15. | |
Zoltan Gera, Kleinheisler, got the shot away. No power. Lovely Karen, | :58:16. | :58:28. | |
Sigurdsson behind him, a good touch on the outside of his right foot. | :58:29. | :58:36. | |
Twice now the substitute has done well. Nagy for Hungary. | :58:37. | :58:58. | |
Nikolic Serbian born. Dzsudzsak. Sigurdsson helping out. Tamas Kadar | :58:59. | :59:16. | |
optimistic, hit it well the first time and shockingly badly the | :59:17. | :59:21. | |
second. The first a much better strike. Alice and got in the wake of | :59:22. | :59:33. | |
the first shot. -- Arnason. It should not have been a penalty. The | :59:34. | :59:42. | |
referee gave it. It is going to be a free kick to Hungary. | :59:43. | :59:55. | |
Can they find an equaliser, and that would virtually assure them of a | :59:56. | :00:06. | |
place in the last 16. A good ball, Sigthorsson. Alfredsson to | :00:07. | :00:11. | |
Bjarnason. You can see from that possible | :00:12. | :00:26. | |
counterattack that the clock is in the back of Icelandic minds. A great | :00:27. | :00:33. | |
run forward by Guzmics, he did really well. It is a free kick and a | :00:34. | :00:40. | |
yellow card for Finnbogason who chased him all the way. A great run. | :00:41. | :00:49. | |
A great run. Finnbogason will not now be available for Iceland in the | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
final group game against Austria. Great run by the centre-half, | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
Guzmics positive and through the Hearts of the Icelandic side. We | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
have not seen that this afternoon, they have crowded out the centre | :01:02. | :01:10. | |
ground. Dzsudzsak. The goalkeeper hesitant, a free kick from a similar | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
situation hit the target. Anything can happen this tournament. Balazs | :01:16. | :01:30. | |
Dzsudzsak will be thinking, test Halldorsson, make him make a save. | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
Balazs Dzsudzsak for Hungary, a goal down. Halldorsson did make a save. | :01:37. | :01:43. | |
He did not move, watch the goalkeeper, he did not take a step. | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
We cease over many goalkeepers take a step before the ball is struck. He | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
is stationary and that put him in a position to see the ball and to | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
catch it comfortable life. Good point. Thanks! -- comfortable life. | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
I do make them now and again, Steve! That is a good clearance by Kadar, | :02:04. | :02:11. | |
and we have seen a number of goalkeepers, we saw it last season | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
in domestic football, I'll keep is taking a step the wrong way. Nagy -- | :02:16. | :02:27. | |
goalkeepers. The last quarter of an hour. | :02:28. | :02:35. | |
Kadar, forward. Good ball, that. Nemanja Nikolic. He is caught. Free | :02:36. | :02:52. | |
kick, the card is out again. Saevarsson this time. Good play from | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
Dzsudzsak, he can drive at him and commit him. A definite foul from | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
Saevarsson and another opportunity to but the ball in the box. Hungary | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
will feel by now that they are deserving of an equaliser at the way | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
they have pressed and pressed in the second half. Kleinheisler to try to | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
deliver here. Bode amongst those waiting. | :03:16. | :03:39. | |
Kleinheisler. Oh, dear! He lead that. Adam Nagy. That was poor as | :03:40. | :03:47. | |
well. No idea what Kleinheisler was doing and if I was the captain, I | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
would be screening, what you doing? Put the ball in the box, has come | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
forward, get a good delivery. What does he do? He puts it straight at | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
the opposition. That was poor play. Gera under pressure from Gylfi | :04:04. | :04:12. | |
Sigurdsson. Is he onside here? Nemanja Nikolic, he has won a | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
corner, he did well. The pressure is mounting, a good run from Nemanja | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
Nikolic down the channel. He does well to keep the ball in from a poor | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
first touch. More pressure on Iceland. Can they hold out? | :04:27. | :04:34. | |
Kleinheisler with this Hungarian corner. Again, it is poor. | :04:35. | :04:42. | |
Sigthorsson away. Two sit to pieces in quick succession, both of them | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
poor -- set pieces. Looking for Gera. Good header. Out by Arnason | :04:47. | :04:58. | |
and safe now. Halldorsson has it. We can see the replay, Halldorsson in a | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
hurry to get the ball the way downfield which is not great because | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
it comes straight back again. Down in the penalty area and is he judged | :05:09. | :05:15. | |
to have fouled his man? I think it was Nikolic and Arnason in the | :05:16. | :05:23. | |
centre coming together. The referee gives a free kick to Iceland. But | :05:24. | :05:30. | |
once again, it is good to defending, 12 minutes to go. Holding on, | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
Iceland. I would not say Hungary had created many clear-cut chances, | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
Steve. No, but they have had the initiative and the possession. Can | :05:41. | :05:47. | |
they find the invention? That is the problem. | :05:48. | :05:56. | |
Just wondering what he is thinking down there after ending his long | :05:57. | :06:08. | |
goal drought, Szalai, for his country and his club. He breaks the | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
dog against Austria and he is struck. The manager has brought on | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
two strikers in the second half and he has sat stapled to the bench. | :06:19. | :06:28. | |
Sigurdsson, finding Skulason. Forwards. A little flick on, he | :06:29. | :06:52. | |
cannot find Nikolic. Away by Skulason. Finnbogason. He gets a | :06:53. | :07:02. | |
free kick and Kadar gets the yellow card. Not happy, having a go at | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
Finnbogason. Good play from the substitute. He nicked it away from | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
Kadar for a free kick for his side. The replay. On the replay, I have | :07:13. | :07:21. | |
got to say, I think he is very fortunate, Finnbogason. He goes to | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
ground too easy and the referee could easily have penalised him. A | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
second yellow card. It has worked out for him because they have got | :07:30. | :07:31. | |
the free kick. Emil Hallfredsson. Free kick, Hungary. They have got to | :07:32. | :07:43. | |
hurry now. Kadar forward, Nikolic could not | :07:44. | :08:02. | |
control it. Arnason. And the free kick is given away again as Nikolic | :08:03. | :08:10. | |
makes slight contact with Halldorsson. I have got to say, | :08:11. | :08:18. | |
Arnason and Sigurdsson, the two centre halves, have done so well to | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
control the back four and to see dangerous situations. And now they | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
have got Bjarnason and Gylfi Sigurdsson in front of them | :08:28. | :08:29. | |
protecting them, not going anywhere, just staying here. They were to take | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
that 1-0 lead and they have worked so hard, I just want more invention | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
from Hungary, especially man Dzsudzsak. This is Bode. Trying to | :08:40. | :08:50. | |
find Kleinheisler. Big shout from the Hungarian fans, they believe | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
they are owed a decision by the referee after a penalty given to | :08:55. | :09:05. | |
Iceland. That came off Kiraly. A card for Kleinheisler. For his | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
protests. Good play from Bjarnason, running | :09:09. | :09:22. | |
with the ball. Taking the pressure away from his team. I think | :09:23. | :09:34. | |
Bjarnason kicks Gera. A big moment now for Eidur Gudjohnsen who is | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
coming on for Iceland to replace Sigthorsson who has run himself into | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
the ground. And he has done very well. Here he is. Eidur Gudjohnsen, | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
37. To an enormous ovation. PSV, Chelsea, Barcelona, Monaco, | :09:48. | :10:08. | |
Spurs, Rouge, on his CV. Now at Malmo. At Mulder, rather -- Bruges. | :10:09. | :10:20. | |
Playing in the Norwegian league. And now we will see him, Szalai is | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
coming on. The man who scored the first goal against the Austrians. | :10:25. | :10:34. | |
Taking the centre-half off as well. Yes, Juhasz goes off. A little over | :10:35. | :10:46. | |
five minutes to go. Emil Hallfredsson for Iceland. The ball | :10:47. | :10:47. | |
out of play. They have a throw in. Good chase by Szalai. Decent first | :10:48. | :11:16. | |
touch, he has killed it, can he get a shot away? Bjarnason is with him, | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
clever ball stamped out by Sigurdsson. Good play by Nagy. | :11:22. | :11:32. | |
Nikolic, towards Bode, helped out by Emil Hallfredsson. Gudjohnsen is | :11:33. | :11:40. | |
there, turning away from Emil Hallfredsson and safety. It was | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
Finnbogason. It was that man Bjarnason again. Great work, the | :11:44. | :11:51. | |
central midfield player. And the ball to Gudjohnsen so composed. This | :11:52. | :11:59. | |
is Eidur Gudjohnsen who is seven months old than the Hungarian | :12:00. | :12:09. | |
veteran, Zoltan Gera. That was poor from him, Flex and tricks now. Given | :12:10. | :12:17. | |
away. Sigurdsson. Skulason. Bjarnason. Kadar. There is time and | :12:18. | :12:29. | |
there is hope for Hungary. Dzsudzsak, Kleinheisler. And | :12:30. | :12:39. | |
Gudjohnsen is fouled, Iceland have a free kick. | :12:40. | :12:49. | |
Remember, Lazio performed superbly in the European Championships of | :12:50. | :13:01. | |
2004. -- Lazio. And it can happen. It is one of the great stories if | :13:02. | :13:08. | |
Iceland can reach the last 16 of this European Championship. A win | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
today does not guarantee it, but it would be immensely cruel if they did | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
not make it on four points. Something of a mathematical miracle. | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
But they are not there yet! Nemanja Nikolic. Kleinheisler. Cisse -- Nagy | :13:25. | :13:35. | |
wants it and he has got it. Nikolic, this is dangerous. Nikolic, it is an | :13:36. | :13:49. | |
own goal! It is Saevarsson who got the final touch. Hungary level right | :13:50. | :13:54. | |
at the end. What is it about Euro 2016 and late, late, late goals? | :13:55. | :14:02. | |
Birkir Saevarsson's own goal. Iceland one, Hungary one. Great | :14:03. | :14:14. | |
plague down this right-hand side. The run was on track, a great ball | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
across and Saevarsson had to go for it. There is a player right behind | :14:20. | :14:26. | |
him. It is so cruel but you have to say the last five, ten minutes, | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
Hungary have deserved the equaliser. The ball is whipped across. | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
Saevarsson doing his job, he had to make contact with the ball but it | :14:36. | :14:39. | |
goes into his own net. The substitute is playing the part, | :14:40. | :14:48. | |
Nikolic. And another late goal. 1-1 in Marseille. You have got to feel | :14:49. | :14:55. | |
sorry for that man, Birkir Saevarsson. | :14:56. | :15:03. | |
It has been a fantasy. Everything has gone so well for them and that | :15:04. | :15:11. | |
own goal could cost them dearly. Solaris going off from behind the | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
goal. Dzsudzsak has gone to ask his fans | :15:16. | :15:32. | |
to celebrate but to celebrate properly. And not to incur the wrath | :15:33. | :15:40. | |
of Uefa. Bangers have been thrown and there will be repercussions. | :15:41. | :15:46. | |
Different from the Croatian situation yesterday because that was | :15:47. | :15:59. | |
not in celebration. Hallfredsson did not track the run of Nikolic. You | :16:00. | :16:03. | |
have to have sympathy with the full-back, doing his job, but just | :16:04. | :16:10. | |
could not get enough on the ball. And into his own net. And there is | :16:11. | :16:23. | |
still time for another. A minimum of four added minutes. They are about | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
to go into that added time. The noise from the Hungarian fans is | :16:27. | :16:49. | |
deafening. It is now a test for Iceland. Adam Lang. Kleinheisler. | :16:50. | :17:06. | |
Dzsudzsak. Up towards Finnbogason. Rather clumsy from Adam Nagy. A | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
yellow card for the Hungarian. Finnbogason is up there, drop to the | :17:12. | :17:34. | |
ground. There was a foul and it is not the corner kick Iceland hoped | :17:35. | :17:40. | |
for but a free kick to Hungary. Three of the four added minutes to | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
play. Are we in for another late one? Iceland will be heartbroken, | :17:47. | :17:55. | |
the defendant so well all afternoon but credit to Hungary, they kept | :17:56. | :18:06. | |
going. Well done Halldorsson, his heart must have been in his mouth. | :18:07. | :18:19. | |
School arson. On towards Finnbogason. Kleinheisler. | :18:20. | :18:32. | |
Skulason. Iceland looking for the winner. A test for a Tamas Kadar. | :18:33. | :19:04. | |
Smashed away by Dzsudzsak. In these last couple of minutes it is Iceland | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
with everything to gain and Hungary with everything to lose. The referee | :19:10. | :19:16. | |
comes across. Talking to his assistant on the far side. He | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
decided Finnbogason is fouled outside the penalty area, it is a | :19:22. | :19:25. | |
brilliant decision to stop a great decision from the referee. Adam Lang | :19:26. | :19:32. | |
pulling down Finnbogason. Now the right foot of Sigurdsson. We have | :19:33. | :19:38. | |
seen him do it for Swansea. What an opportunity. This could be the last | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
kick of the game. Is he going to put it into the net, there are 50 | :19:45. | :19:52. | |
seconds of added time to go. This could put Iceland into the last 16 | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
virtually assured, you have to say, not absolutely. If it goes in the | :19:58. | :20:08. | |
back of the net. Who better than Gylfi Sigurdsson. Though it could be | :20:09. | :20:17. | |
a Gudjohnsen fairy tale, he is standing behind Gylfi Sigurdsson. | :20:18. | :20:24. | |
Very difficult to get up and down from this situation. You have got to | :20:25. | :20:31. | |
be brave. I have seen a few players do it in the past. Coutinho did it | :20:32. | :20:41. | |
this season at West Ham. Are you going to go for power, is he going | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
to nudge it to the right for Gudjohnsen, Sigurdsson, or go with | :20:47. | :20:54. | |
it himself? If this goes in it is the most ridiculous Icelandic fairy | :20:55. | :21:03. | |
tale. Gylfi Sigurdsson here. Can he go over it, under it? Sigurdsson | :21:04. | :21:12. | |
went into it, Gudjohnsen! The referee has blown the whistle. Joy | :21:13. | :21:21. | |
for Hungary at the end. That is how close it was, for Gudjohnsen, right | :21:22. | :21:29. | |
at the end. The points are shared but Hungary, they know they're | :21:30. | :21:35. | |
almost, almost assured a place in the last 16 of the European | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
Championships whilst Iceland have got work to do against Austria. | :21:41. | :21:51. | |
Hungary are almost there. And there is the man, delightful to see him go | :21:52. | :22:02. | |
over to console him. Iceland look heartbroken, they have got to lift | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
themselves somehow. But it is finished in Marseille with one | :22:07. | :22:15. | |
apiece draw. Contrasting emotions in Marseille. The draw keeping Hungary | :22:16. | :22:22. | |
top of Group F and with a good chance of qualifying for the last 16 | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
of the Berlocq there yet. They go through as group winners if they | :22:27. | :22:30. | |
beat Portugal in the final game. Iceland are second and will be | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
leapfrogged is the it -- if there is a winner in the game between | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
Portugal and Austria tonight. When you look at the Hungarian | :22:40. | :22:42. | |
celebrations, they believe they are virtually there. That is them now on | :22:43. | :22:49. | |
four points and a couple of good results. Great spirit and character | :22:50. | :22:53. | |
today, they kept going. Iceland deserved to be in front, I thought | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
they had the better chances in the first half in particular but in the | :22:58. | :23:01. | |
second half they hardly created chance. Backs to the wall stuff. | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
Hungary were pushing for the equaliser and in the end they felt | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
they deserved it. The feeling watching it is everyone feeling | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
quite sorry for Iceland but understanding at the same time but | :23:15. | :23:18. | |
Hungary deserve to get something. These last ten minutes of these | :23:19. | :23:24. | |
games every day! Mentally I was going through it for the Icelandic | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
players, the effort and commitment they put in. But I think Hungary | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
deserved it, they were the better team in the second half by far. Just | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
a shame it was an own goal. On mental tiredness, is there a mental | :23:39. | :23:44. | |
tiredness in the players and that is why we have seen so many late goals? | :23:45. | :23:49. | |
I think when you're holding on for dear life, making last ditch | :23:50. | :23:58. | |
challenges, chasing the ball. Iceland predominantly in the second | :23:59. | :24:01. | |
half were chasing the ball and then I think there can be mental | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
tiredness. A bit like the Welsh against the English. It is hard to | :24:06. | :24:15. | |
hang on. It looked to be a warm day as well. And the closer you are to | :24:16. | :24:18. | |
getting that result, you're counting the clock down the top 28% of the | :24:19. | :24:27. | |
goals in this tournament coming in the last minutes of the game. The | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
goal was tiredness from the Icelandic defenders. Sigurdsson on | :24:33. | :24:39. | |
the corner of the box. Sigurdsson is there and he sees what is happening. | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
The lad who turned his back, completely switches off. Sigurdsson | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
has got to communicate better. It is a good ball across the box. And to | :24:49. | :24:55. | |
be fair the lad has no choice but to try to stop it. Hungary, Rosol | :24:56. | :25:06. | |
Dzsudzsak trying all sorts of things and actually that came off for them. | :25:07. | :25:15. | |
They got on the end of every cross, the Icelandic defenders. Take a look | :25:16. | :25:26. | |
at the Iceland Gull again. It was a mistake and perhaps fortunate to get | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
the penalty. -- take a look at the Icelandic goal. Very soft, the | :25:31. | :25:39. | |
referee pointed to the spot, no doubt in his mind. But as you can | :25:40. | :25:47. | |
see, Gunnarsson, Cardiff City, I think that is very soft and he goes | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
over it too easily for me. But they get it. Calmness personified. | :25:53. | :26:02. | |
Sigurdsson slots it away, lovely. Good under pressure, really tucked | :26:03. | :26:06. | |
away in the corner nicely. He was the best player today. Going into | :26:07. | :26:14. | |
the second round, they would be more than happy to settle for a point | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
because that would almost put them through, but we have not seen that | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
in second group entries in general. It has all been defence. There have | :26:24. | :26:30. | |
been a lot of positive performances. Hungary today did nothing but try to | :26:31. | :26:35. | |
win the game. For me the new format brings excitement throughout the | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
whole stages. Even in the last games we're going to see a huge chunk of | :26:41. | :26:44. | |
the teams still in with a great chance of getting through. I think | :26:45. | :26:50. | |
it has worked. You can see the Hungarian players over your | :26:51. | :26:53. | |
shoulder, still on the pitch put up they have just finished a lap of | :26:54. | :26:56. | |
honour. They feel they have won the game. It is a very good point for | :26:57. | :27:02. | |
them, that takes them to four points. And most teams I would think | :27:03. | :27:07. | |
in the group probably think if they get to four point then they're right | :27:08. | :27:12. | |
in the mix of getting into the last stages. Well all the football coming | :27:13. | :27:17. | |
your way, let me point you in that direction. England and Wales on | :27:18. | :27:23. | |
Monday, final group games and highlights of both matches on BBC | :27:24. | :27:27. | |
One at 10:45pm. Live commentary on 5 live. Coming up later Portugal | :27:28. | :27:33. | |
against Austria on BBC One at 7:30pm. Tomorrow we have Switzerland | :27:34. | :27:39. | |
against France 7:30pm. And you can download the BBC Sport at to set up | :27:40. | :27:45. | |
goal alerts. A big night for Portugal, Austria will be determined | :27:46. | :27:50. | |
to put a disappointing performance behind them. A huge night especially | :27:51. | :27:55. | |
for Ronaldo. He has got to put to bed both missed chances from the | :27:56. | :28:02. | |
first game. I fancy Portugal. On the back of the disappointing result | :28:03. | :28:06. | |
against Iceland, they will want to improve on that. A bit of better | :28:07. | :28:13. | |
finishing. They had lots of chances. Ronaldo scoring. Thanks to both of | :28:14. | :28:20. | |
you. Portugal and Austria to come. And if it is like most of the games | :28:21. | :28:24. | |
so far in this tournament you will want to be watching it right to the | :28:25. | :28:30. | |
very end. Goodbye. Iceland get the first half underway. | :28:31. | :28:38. | |
The referee has not lost his whistle. Sigurdsson. Kleinheisler. | :28:39. | :28:49. | |
That will be disappointing. Sigurdsson! More pressure on | :28:50. | :29:00. | |
Iceland. Nikolic! It is an own goal. Hungary | :29:01. | :29:01. |
