Icelandic wall just too much, says Austria coach (Reuters)
Iceland's last-ditch defending, never-say-die attitude and a touch of luck was just too much for Austria's inexperienced side, beaten coach Marcel Koller said. Despite arguably playing their best football in the second half against Iceland, pre-tournament dark horses Austria went down 2-1 to the islanders, conceding a stoppage-time goal that sealed their exit from the championship. "If there are 10 players in the penalty area like an Icelandic wall then of course it's difficult and you have to find gaps," Koller said.
