Lars Lagerback, one of Iceland’s two head coaches, has turned up the heat ahead of his team’s clash with Portugal at the UEFA European Championships next week, having stated the nation’s star men Cristiano Ronaldo and Pepe could succeed as Hollywood actors.
The two teams will meet in Nice on Tuesday in what’ll be Iceland’s first-ever match at a major tournament. But Lagerback clearly isn’t daunted by the prospect of coming up against Portugal’s superstar players and has criticised their histrionics ahead of the contest, per Ed Malyon of the Daily Mirror.
