First a referendum on thursday last week meant they were leaving the
European Union, and following that, Iceland has officially sent them
parking out of the competition.
"Meehn! U don't belong here!"
And social media fans can't just hold back their amusement at the
succession of events.
The three Lions were handed a seemingly easy Last16 fixture with and
Iceland team that had the backing of a 332,000 populace. And the went
on with a flying start in the 4th minute when Rooney drilled in a
penalty.
But Iceland hit off the first shock with a reply within a minute,
when a long throw got the ball behind the English defence leaving
goalie Hart to the mercy of star player Sigurdsson.
Eighteen minutes later, Sigthorsson beat Joe Hart from the edge of
the box, leaving the stressed up goalkeeper to punch the ball into his
own net. And despite some sparks of effort made by England to avoid
the ultimate outcome, even substitute Sterlin for Vardy and bringing
on Rashford. They ultimately crashed out of the France hosted tourney.
And the social media was shocked as it came just days after the Euro
Union exit of Britain.
A Nigeria named 'Tunde Okewale MBE' tweeted with his handle @urbanslangs
"England remains the first to exit euro twice in one week".
@amaradatia said: "300,000 icelanders voted for Brexit!"
The next guy was more direct.
@lewis_damian: English players obviously voted to leave.
I was watching the game between Iceland and England and a friend
beside kept on swearing and insulting the English. He repeatedly said
that England had a team of very expensive idiots, and that the only
advice he would give to the next England coach is that he should keep
on playing past tapes of the Barcelona team. Maybe that would help.
