Meet the dentist managing Iceland at Euro 2016

You may well know that Iceland will be the smallest nation ever to play in the European Championships when they debut in France.
Iceland's co-managers Lars Lagerback and Heimir Hallgrimsson have hoisted the team over 100 places in the FIFA rankings since beginning their partnership in 2011.

Initially Lagerback, veteran of five major tournaments in charge of Sweden, worked above Hallgrimsson. But the part-time dentist has since been promoted to work alongside the man with over 50 years of experience in football.
