Yes, I am talking about England 1 Iceland 2

Much more important than mere politics

National humiliation complete
Not quite.

Don't know if it is apocrypha or not, but

apparently the coach of the England team is payed millions of pounds per year,

World cup 2018.

Final four: France, Belgium, England, and Croatia.

England has been making amends for the previous "national humiliation" at the hands of Iceland.
