Iceland pulled off one of the greatest shocks in European Championship football history when they recovered to beat England 2-1 in their last 16 clash and will now face hosts France in the quarterfinals.

This is one of the most embarrassing defeats in England’s football history.

England Manager Roy Hodgson has resigned.

In other quarters - Poland will face Portugal, Wales will meet Belgium and Germany will clash with Italy.

Italy ended Spain's quest for a third consecutive European Championship title with a 2-0 win.
