Iceland’s kit suppliers have revealed that they are struggling to meet the demand of shirt sales generated by the nation’s fantastic run of results at Euro 2016 after a surge in purchases – in Scotland.

Football fans north of the border are obviously delighted with England’s elimination from Euro 2016 at the hands of Iceland – ranked 34th in the Fifa world rankings – after Monday’s shock 2-1 defeat brought an end to Roy Hodgson’s reign as manager.

And to rub salt into the open wounds of English fans, Scots have rushed to kit themselves out in Iceland merchandise in order to remind their arch rivals of the embarrassing loss in France.
