AROUND eight per cent of the entire population of Iceland will be in France on Saturday to watch their heroes try to improve on the impressive 1-1 draw with Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal in the opening match.

Lars Lagerback will probably reward the same players who perfectly shackled one of the world's greatest players with another start against high-flying Hungary.

Bernd Storck's side announced their return to major-tournament football after a 30-year absence with an inspired 2-0 win over an Austria side currently ranked 10th in the world by FIFA.

Zoltan Stieber jumped off the bench to score for the Magyars in Bordeaux in their opening match but right-back Attila Fiola will miss out on another cap with an ankle injury.
