England fans must feel a bit better about their Euro2016 exit after this.
Iceland are no pushover, clearly. Clear as ice, in fact.
But Messi continues to misfire in the big tournaments. He will never be regarded as a true international legend unless he can turn things round in the next couple of games.
That missed penalty of his has condemned The Armchair to face his first inaccurate prediction of this World Cup, at the sixth attempt.
There was almost a siege on the Icelandic goal toward the end, but their huge keeper and even mightier spirit kept the South Americans at bay to secure a well-earned, first ever World Cup point.
And a big, loud, welcome to the World Cup to the Viking Thunderclap. So much more interesting than the ageing Mexican Wave (32 years old this World Cup.)
So, The Armchair has been proved wrong, but having predicted Croatia to win the group, there's still room for a little smugness.
The Armchair Predicted:
Argentina 2-1 Iceland
5 and 1
