Tens of thousands of fans turned out in the Iceland capital of Reykjavik to welcome their Euro 2016 heroes back to the country on Monday.

And in truly stirring fashion, supporters and players joined together for the ‘Viking chant’ or ‘huuuuh’ that became so infamous in France as shown in the video above.

An open-top bus parade was also given the players but this was the abiding memory of the players’ return.

With the world watching goings on in Euro 2016, expect this to be churned out around stadiums from this season onwards.
