It’s a fun headline in this article about the Icelandic National Team in football:
How Iceland became the worlds best pound for pound soccer team

Iceland then qualified for the 2016 European Championships with a string of great matches and rose even further in the FIFA rankings.

For a nation of 350 thousand, the margins are tiny for this type of success in a major team sport. You really have to maximize on all opportunities and that’s what’s so great about this success, it’s been built on good decisions at many levels over several years. From the facilities built, the emphasis on coaches education, the nurturing of talent and to the tactical coaching and play of the National Team.

We at Sideline Sports are proud of working with the Icelandic Football Association and the National Team. It’s a privilege to witness all of the hard work that lies behind and it will be fun to continue the adventure!
