Lol, thank you for this. I didn't even think about his accent being difficult to understand until I read the comments. I'm so used to the harsh Icelandic pronunciations 😅 You are lucky to have him and it looks like he's staying a while 🎉😃

That must have been great. Iceland won the silver medal in the 2008 Olympics. Everything went crazy here 🙏🤩 I was one of the tens of thousands of ppl who greeted them in the city center upon arrival (the population was only about 300.000 😅). It was awesome. Quite mad - but awesome 😅😃😃

Oh, did you catch the Croatian time out near the end, where Dagur tells the team to keep their heads held high and ends the speech with a "f**k them, f**k them all" 😅😉 This is 30-40 years worth of Icelandic resentment towards Denmark in handball.

Yes, the (damn) Danes are too good. This team is probably GOAT, I hate to say it. And it was impressive to see Croatia tackle Denmarks 10 goal lead to 5 goals. You were in the game up until the last few minutes! You should be proud! 🙏

Omg! Are you hosting or watching? I'm so excited, the key to Croatian gold is the mentality of the team. They recovered from the loss to Egypt and beat France against the odds. Now let's hope they'll teach Denmark a lesson! 🙏🏆

This analyst has a history of explaining things in a way that nobody understands completely, but we kinda get it and then we see it. We love him 🤩😅❤️

Yes, the key is the love of the game and respect for one another. This year we had an analyst, a former captain of our national team, talk about the balance between the warrior and the gardener. A team needs to have both. Fight like champions but make sure to watch over and support each other.

Yes! Handball is what brings people together. Our national team got to a competitive level when I was a kid. I have fond memories of watching games and celebrating with everyone in my school. Going to games with my dad. Watching with my grandma in her nineties was the best. She saw everything! 🙏❤️

Yes, unfortunately the Danes are very strong 😔 But you have the magic of Dagur and a great team! If anyone can use the Danish arrogance to their advantage - it's Dagur. They will not know what hit them 🥶🙏

Haha, I had forgotten about Baby Lasagna 😂 You also thought that Iceland would beat Croatia. I think your "let's not jinx it" approach is working 😃 I have faith in the Croatian team and Dagurs' ability to analyze the opponent and create some magic.

Well, you've already WON France🙏 Croatia will probably play Denmark for the gold. Icelanders LOVE to beat Denmark - the country which once ruled us. The Icelandic coach Guðmundur Guðmundsson led the Danish to victory in the 2016 Olympics and then they fired him! I can't forgive that. So go Croatia!

My take on it is that if Croatia wins the world cup - technically Iceland gets silver!! 😅
It only makes sense since Croatia is the only country Iceland lost against. That silver medal will have a faint gold stripe in it due to the fact that Dagur is Icelandic. Go Croatia! 😃😅

Awww, really? That's very sweet, I have not seen it ❤️ Iceland didn't get it's independence from Denmark until 1944 making us very aware of how important it is to be able to get recognition and support like this from other nations. Thank you for telling me.

Oh man, do I relate. I honestly didn't think that we would win four games in a row, had a knot in my stomach before the 3rd and 4th game. I was finally starting to believe in the team before the last game - no knot just excitement! 😅🥶 🙈
However win or lose - I'm always proud of our team 🙏

Oh, man.... Iceland is always it's worst enemy 🙈 I'm still super pissed, have to admit 😅 I'm not even willing to take an Icelandic credit for Dagur being the Croatian coach 😅
Croatia totally deserved this win 💯% Congratulations 🎉

Yes, I hate injuries. Just got the news that Bjarki Már Elísson is injured on our side 😔 He's one of our best players, plays left wing and has been a vital part of the national team since 2012. Is usually our top scorer.

I would say that it's 50/50. If Iceland keeps playing like that, it's going to be tough for Croatia, but not a given. The Croatian team is very strong, and has (one of) the best coaches in the world that knows the Icelandic team in and out. You also have the crowd on your side. I can't wait!

Congratulations 👏🎉 Cape Verde's biggest loss so far in the competicion. All those Croatian goals might be the deciding factor regarding the final results in the group.
