A country of just 4 million people winning the world cup? That would have been historic... BTW.... around 20% of the world population reside in my country and we were not able to qualify for the tournament. On the other hand, Iceland (with a population of just 300,000) managed to qualify.

How did Iceland do that, its not even the size of a large city in population so they must have some amazing strategy or training in place there.  Or was it purely lucky and poor performance by the opponents along the way ?

Even my country is having a population of 260,000,000 and we couldn't qualify for the world cup. Icelanders have the natural advantage as they are strongly built (they are Scandinavians, so have an average height of more than 6 ft).
