There were scenes of pure joy in Reykjavik following Iceland's historic victory over Kosovo to secure a place in the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
Iceland qualified for its first World Cup - becoming the smallest nation by population to do so - after goals from Gylfi Sigurdsson and Johann Berg Gudmundsson secured a place in next summer's competition.
Naturally, Iceland players and supporters performed their wildly popular celebration after the match, as thousands took part in a spirited Viking clap.
