ICELAND!!!

I don't follow soccer much, but tonight I watched the second half of the Iceland-England match. (Iceland won.) Soccer is the most popular sport in the world, and English Premier League soccer is the apex of the sport, so the English team was overwhelmingly favored. The commentators said there are more registered players (whatever that means) in the state of Rhode Island than there are in Iceland. Roughly the equivalent of a minor league baseball team from Rwanda beating the NY Yankees.
