FT: ENGLAND 1-2 ICELAND - THE FAIRYTALE CONTINUES !! ICELAND ARE THROUGH TO THE QUARTERFINALS OF EURO 2016! The underdogs will face France, while England will rue their absolute failure.

02:20 (IST)28 JUN 2016

90+3' WHAT A CHANCE! Vardy glances a header wide from Strurridge's cross.

02:18 (IST)28 JUN 2016

90+2' Iceland are defending desperately as they hand on with England piling on the pressure.

02:17 (IST)28 JUN 2016

90' ALMOST! Rashford bamboozles the Iceland defence with a dribble into the box, and he earns a corner - which he then proceeds to take, badly. 3 minutes of injury time.

02:16 (IST)28 JUN 2016

89' Cahill concedes a free-kick. Can Iceland put this to bed?

02:15 (IST)28 JUN 2016

88' Bodvarssson comes off for Traustason

02:14 (IST)28 JUN 2016

88' Harry Kane sends a free-kick from a promising position well out of play. Dear me, what were you thinking, Roy?

02:13 (IST)28 JUN 2016

86' Wayne Rooney, England's captain, has come off for Marcus Rashford. Is his dream season about to continue?

02:11 (IST)28 JUN 2016

85' To put this potential result in perspective, Iceland's population is as large as the city of Leicester.

02:11 (IST)28 JUN 2016

84' ALMOST! A pass from Bjarnason sends Gunnarson, of all people running at the goal, and he twists away from Cahill to shoot at Hart from a narrow angle, but the English keeper palms the ball away.

83' The entirety of the world are Iceland supporters now, apart from the English of course.

02:08 (IST)28 JUN 2016

81' Ragnar Sigurdsson with another excellent tackle to deny Jamie Vardy on the touchline. The Icelandic defender has been absolutely magnificent tonight.

02:07 (IST)28 JUN 2016

80' 10 minutes for England to salvage their Euro 2016 hopes.

02:06 (IST)28 JUN 2016

79' WHAT A CHANCE! Wilshere chips a peach of a ball over the Icelandic defence and finds Harry Kane, but the Spurs man heads the ball straight at Halldorsson in goal.

02:04 (IST)28 JUN 2016

77' Wayne Rooney has misplaced more passes than any other outfield player. This has been an awful performance from the Manchester United legend so far. Can he turn it around?

02:03 (IST)28 JUN 2016

76' Bodvarsson comes off for Elmar Bjarnason

02:02 (IST)28 JUN 2016

75' IS THAT A PENALTY? The English fans scream for a penalty more out of hope than an actual appeal, but the referee does not even consider it.

02:00 (IST)28 JUN 2016

72' SHOT! Saevarsson receives the ball on the right wing from a lovely diagonal ball, cuts inside and lets fly with his left foot, but his volcanic strike goes over.

01:57 (IST)28 JUN 2016

01:53 (IST)28 JUN 2016

66' Harry Kane skews a shot from a free-kick wide. Can Hodgson finally stop with the madness of him taking set-pieces?

01:52 (IST)28 JUN 2016

65' Gunnarsson goes into the book for a late foul. That means there are just two Iceland players on the pitch who are safe from suspension

01:51 (IST)28 JUN 2016

64' For all of Wayne Rooney's qualities, the Manchester United midfielder has not made a single chance so far. Not even one.

01:50 (IST)28 JUN 2016

63' Wilshere aims a long ball at Jamie Vardy, and the Iceland defence marshall him well. There's a combination that won't take place next season for Arsenal.

01:49 (IST)28 JUN 2016

62' Bjarnason is penalised for a foul on Cahill for what seemed like a legitimate shoulder barge. That would have sent him clean through on goal.

60' SHOT! A cross from the right bounces to Dele Alli in the box, and he blasts a first time volley over.

01:47 (IST)28 JUN 2016

01:43 (IST)28 JUN 2016

01:40 (IST)28 JUN 2016

01:40 (IST)28 JUN 2016

52' England look devoid of ideas as they pass the ball ahead of the Iceland defensive block, and they're unable to pierce through. Hodgson must be tearing what's left of his hair out on the sidelines. As I write that, a long ball nearly catches Iceland out, with Dele Alli almost getting on the end of it.

01:37 (IST)28 JUN 2016

50' England have a free-kick on the left, with Danny Rose fouled. Harry Kane's delivery is poor and is cleared, but England recycle the ball and send it for a charging Kane at the far post, but his header is tame.

01:34 (IST)28 JUN 2016

47' Daniel Sturridge goes into the book for a reckless tackle from behind on Skulason.

01:32 (IST)28 JUN 2016

HT: Roy Hodgson has made a change, taking off Eric Dier for Jack Wilshere. Will he make the difference?

01:31 (IST)28 JUN 2016

HT: The teams are out on the pitch for the second half. Iceland are 45 minutes away from knocking England out of the Euros and making history!

01:18 (IST)28 JUN 2016

01:17 (IST)28 JUN 2016

HT: England 1-2 Iceland. Wow. Just Wow. Having fallen behind to a Wayne Rooney, Iceland stormed back with goals from Ragnar Sigurdsson and Kolbein Sigthorsson, to take the lead going into the break.

01:15 (IST)28 JUN 2016

44' SHOT! Walker does well to send in a cross from the right, and it falls to Rooney who produces a first time volley into the ground that bounces over the bar.

01:13 (IST)28 JUN 2016

42' BOOM! The characteristic Iceland chant rings out in the Nice stadium, with not much happening on the pitch. Still makes for an entertaining watch though.

01:11 (IST)28 JUN 2016

39' Iceland are quite intelligent with their tactics, rotationally fouling the English players in midfield to break up any rhythm that the Three Lions manage to create.

01:09 (IST)28 JUN 2016

37' Gylfi Sigurdsson goes into the book for a foul on Danny Rose. That's 8 Iceland players who are a yellow card away from missing the quarterfinals. From the set-piece, Smalling heads over when off-balance at the far post.

01:06 (IST)28 JUN 2016

35' According to Opta, England have conceded 2 goals in the opening 18 mins of a match for the first time since November 2007 (England 2-3 Croatia). Meanwhile England mount an attack that ends with Rooney aiming for the top corner, but his effort is way off target.

01:05 (IST)28 JUN 2016

33' Gylfi Sigurdsson produces a wonderful first-time pass to send Iceland on the counter, but Bjarnason slows down the game to take the sting out of it. Moments later, Skulason has a shot on goal.

01:03 (IST)28 JUN 2016

32' Chants of COME ON ENGLAND ring out at the Allianz Riviera, as the English fans find their voice for the first time.

01:01 (IST)28 JUN 2016

30' ALMOST! Raheem Sterling sends Danny Rose clear on the overlap, but his low cross into the box takes a deflection and falls into the grateful arms of Haldorsson

01:00 (IST)28 JUN 2016

28' SAVE! Dele Alli spreads the ball wide to Sturridge on the right, who sends in a lovely cross to Kane at the far post, and he produces a stunning volley that Haldorsson does well to palm away!

00:56 (IST)28 JUN 2016

According to Squawka, Joe Hart has conceded 4 goals from the last 7 he has faced on target. Poor form from the Manchester City goalkeeper.
