The entire country of Iceland was once again sent into delirium thanks to the heroics of the national team. The same side that made it all the way to the quarter-finals in France last summer, overcoming England on the way and showing passion goes a long way in football.
The 'Vikings' will make their first appearance at a World Cup finals in Russia, after winning their qualification group which included teams such as Croatia, Ukraine and Turkey. 10 fixtures, seven wins and only two defeats, to see them through to the top competition in world football.
A population which struggles to reach 300,000 will be granted the chance to relive last summer's dream, thanks to the strength of a squad which equals the pre-match clapping ritual they share with their fans.
Iceland depended on themselves to accomplish the feat against a weak Kosovo side. It was the day to make history, and they did not disappoint. They did not cave to the pressure as they clinched a win on a night they will never forget.
SCENES as Iceland qualify for their first WORLD CUP!! Absolutely incredible!! pic.twitter.com/1kFFHxzMgy
