Iceland shocked England and the world this afternoon with a 2-1 win to advance to the quarterfinals of Euro 2016 and just as he did for the match against Austria, the Icelandic play-by-play man went absolutely off the rails with delight. It is, once again, impossible to understand, but the joy is unrivaled and downright charming.

He apparently made reference to England's decision to #Brexit the European Union during the call, but he told them to "live the way you want" and holds no hard feelings, because Iceland are on to play France and England are packing their bags. Here's a translation if you feel it's necessary, but I think most of the sentiment comes across without it.
