For the second time in a week, England have left Europe.
While that’s not exactly grammatically correct, it’s a decent gag and one of which littered the Twittersphere during and after England’s round of 16 defeat to Iceland.
Iceland, who surprised many by making it out of Group F, beat Roy Hodgson’s men 2-1, coming from behind to score two first half goals that didn’t exactly cover goalkeeper Joe Hart in glory.
England are out of the European Championships and, bloody hell, did the internet love it?

The worst defeat in our history. England beaten by a country with more volcanoes than professional footballers. Well played Iceland.

Do you think the whole @England team could do a shadow cabinet style resignation? It appears they all hate playing for their country #ENG
