No one is loving this EURO more than IcelandThere have been around 10,000 Icelanders at each of the team's last two UEFA EURO 2016 games – not a huge number but massive for a nation of just 330,000. Those 10,000 fans represent around 3% of the population; if a similar proportion of the population of round of 16 opponents England came to France, there would be 1.59 million people backing Roy Hodgson's side."It is like having your family at the game," defender Kári Árnason said after the 2-1 group-stage win against Austria.

Kevin Love Pulls A Stone Cold Steve Austin After Cavs’ NBA Finals Win
The Cleveland Cavaliers hit the Golden State Warriors with a Stone Cold Stunner on Sunday night in Game 7 of the NBA Finals, and Kevin Love celebrated rather appropriately.

But according to FootballbyFootball.com‘s Matt Chatham, that could actually be a good thing.
