Ronaldo faced a backlash from the Icelandic players…

Meanwhile, France were helped to a 2-0 victory over Albania thanks to goals from Antoine Griezmann and, of course, Dimitri Payet. Les Bleus are now the 10/3 favourites with Coral to go all the way this summer…

Nobody enjoyed Payet’s latest strike more than his club coach Slaven Bilic though…

Both Griezmann and Pogba were amazingly dropped to the bench for the game, causing uproar among punters and fantasy football team managers alike…

Rumours that France are going to drop Pogba & Griezmann tonight.

Attentions swiftly turned to the huge crunch clash between England and Wales. Here’s what Coral ambassador Alan Shearer had to say before kick-off…

Before half-time it was once again that man Gareth Bale that set the clash alight, firing in another superb free-kick, with a hint of a Joe Hart mistake…

Despite Bale’s heroics, it was England’s number one that came under fire for not stopping the strike…

If you look at this image, you have to think Joe Hart saved this shot from Gareth Bale right? #ENGWAL pic.twitter.com/bn29XWP79B

Joe Hart hasn't showered himself in glory there. I guess that's because he has to use Head & Shoulders.

Roy Hodgson thrust both Daniel Sturridge and Jamie Vardy on for the second-half and it was an inspired move…

A game and a half later, Vardy, 24-goal PL champion with 3 strikes in his last 4 England matches, makes his first appearance. About time.

That man Vardy! #ENGWAL https://t.co/KVqmNQKEX7

The goal initially looked offside but the linesman made a great call, as the ball came off Ashley Williams…

Wow, linesman has spotted it comes to Vardy off #WAL CB Ashley Williams. Top call #ENGWAL https://t.co/wvtFQlIP4S pic.twitter.com/ajZzA9VMwj

It was then the other sub Sturridge that fired in a late winner to send England fans wild in France…

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! #ENG have scored! Drama.

STAT: This is the first time ever in a major tournament that #ENG have come from behind to win.
