England, the country that gave the world its most popular sport, association football, soccer to Americans, were dumped out of the European Cup by Iceland! A country of only 330,000 beat England.
This is much more upsetting to the English than the Brexit. Not just that they lost, but that they lost comprehensively. For all but the first six minutes of the 90 minute match they were out played by Iceland.
The talk of the Brexit will sink far below the English people's view as to be reduced to insignificance.
This is important. This is football.
And the best player in the world, Lionel Messi retired from international play. After leading Argentina to four successive intentional competition finals without winning even once.
