Match Highlight:

France vs Iceland Highlights 2016 Euro
Iceland’s 2-1 win over England is widely regarded as the biggest upsets in history of European championship and this Iceland side has something about them which will be making French squad nervous. Hosts will be mighty favourite going into the match but Iceland will go into the game without any pressure and should put a decent fight on Sunday. Looking at the team sheets its hard to see any other result than a France win and hosts will be even more up for the game after Iceland’s surprise win over England so no margin of complacency.
France will be without two first team players in N’Golo Kante and Adil Rami (both suspended) which means Umtiti and Cabaye to start in their respective roles. Olivier Giroud is set to be dropped from starting lineup with Griezmann leading the attack with Coman, Payet and Pogba providing support in attack.
Iceland dont have any injury worries of suspensions and we can safely assume they will start with the same lineup which pretty much outsmart England to reach this far.

The game will be the 9pm kickoff on Sunday and we will have live streaming links 1 hour before it all begins with BBC one coverage. We will also play couple of alternative links closer to kickoff. But if for some reason you missed the live action, you can always tune in here for full match highlights.
Its hard to see Iceland repeating what they did against England but this Championship has been very unpredictable. Portugal are in the semifinals without winning a game. Wales has already dis-mental Belgium and people now expect another mircale of Iceland getting the better of home nation France which will be uphill task but not impossible. I am going with a easy France win in this one.
