Iceland draws 1-1 against Argentina on Saturday and Icelanders go crazy!
Sergio Aguero scored the first goal in the game but only 4 minutes later Aldred Finnbogason had a fairly easy finish just outside the keeper's area, Iceland's first-ever goal in the World Cup.
After 64 minute game the most incredible moment happened, the referee called a penalty after a collision between Hörður Björgvin Magnússin and Maxmillio Meza. Everyone knew who was going to take the shot, especially Hannes Þór Halldórsson. The referee blows the whistle and... IT'S SAVED by Hannes! Icelanders don't believe their eyes! The final score of the game 1-1.
