Downtown Reykjavík Celebrates 2-1 Smiting Of England – VIDEOS

As you might expect, downtown Reykjavík was awash in jubilation as Iceland secured its entry into the UEFA Euro quarter finals last night.

The Icelandic capital was in full celebration mode since defeating England 2-1 last night, and RÚV has compiled a number of videos from the scene.

Fireworks were still going off hours after the game had ended, and people can still be seen walking the streets this morning in their football gear.
