Euro 2016: Could Iceland Pose A threat To France

 Euro 2016: Could Iceland Pose A threat To France

France will be missing both midfielder N'Golo Kante and defender Adil Rami on Sunday due to suspension against battling Iceland, who are fresh from beating England.

Iceland are making their debut appearance at a major tournament and their 2-1 win over the Three Lions in the last 16 will go down as one of the biggest shocks in the competition's history.

With a population of just 330 000, Iceland is the smallest nation to have appeared at any major tournament but the Scandinavian minnows refuse to be overawed by the occasion.

"We always believe. That's our attitude," said their captain, Cardiff City midfielder Aron Gunnarsson.

Antoine Griezmann will be the key man for France after scoring both their goals in their 2-1 win over the Republic of Irelnd in the last 16 in Lyon.

Yohan Cabaye is expected to replace Kante in midfield while Rami's absence has left the door open for Samuel Umtiti of Lyon to win his first cap.
