Euro 2016 Results: Scores, Highlights and Reaction After Monday's Round of 16
England were ignominiously dumped out of UEFA Euro 2016 by Iceland on Monday after letting an early 1-0 lead slip at the Stade de Nice in their last-16 clash and eventually losing 2-1.
Wayne Rooney's penalty gave Roy Hodgson's men the early advantage, but minnows Iceland then scored twice in 12 minutes and held off England admirably for more than an hour to pull off the shock of the tournament so far.
The England manager resigned after the final whistle, per BBC Sport.

Defending champions Spain were were also knocked out of the competition in France, as they lost 2-0 to a brilliant Italy side at the Stade de France in Paris.
Giorgio Chiellini netted in the first half, following up to turn home Eder's excellent free-kick after David De Gea could only push it away. Graziano Pelle sealed the match—and Italy's quarter-final spot against Germany—with a stoppage-time volley.
Read on for a closer examination of Monday's action.

| Last 16 | Italy 2-0 Spain |
| Last 16 | England 1-2 Iceland |
England 1-2 Iceland
England went ahead within four minutes as Rooney fired a powerful penalty into the bottom corner, with Iceland goalkeeper Hannes Thor Halldorsson diving the right way but unable to keep it out.
Raheem Sterling had drawn the penalty upon his return to Hodgson’s starting XI, per ITV Football:
There was little time for England fans to celebrate, though, as Iceland equalised almost instantly, with the Three Lions' defence unable to deal with Aron Gunnarsson's famously effective long throw-ins.
He launched the ball into the box, and Ragnar Sigurdsson was able to slot home from close range after Kari Arnason headed on.
Dele Alli almost put England back ahead after a quarter of an hour, but his rasping shot from 20 yards skimmed just over the bar.
Harry Kane also then went for an effort from long-range before Kolbeinn Sigthorsson gave Iceland a shock lead after another error from Joe Hart.
The England goalkeeper—at fault for conceding in the group stage against Wales—allowed Sigthorsson's shot from the edge of the box to slip through his fingers, and the ball trickled over the line.
Per the Sunday World's Kevin Palmer, it has not been a good tournament for the Manchester City stopper:
Far from responding with any great intent, England continued to have much of the possession, but their lack of cutting edge was glaringly obvious, and they went in at half-time trailing and short of ideas.
Hodgson put on Jack Wilshere for Eric Dier at the break, but there was little improvement.
Indeed, it was Iceland who had the better chances in the second half, as they looked to deal the killer blow on the break.
Hart was called into action several times. Nine minutes into the second half, he kept out an excellent overhead kick from Sigurdsson, and he was also forced to make a smart save from a Gunnarsson effort seven minutes from the end.
Meanwhile, England continued to labour, creating few clear-cut opportunities. Kane had a clear header in the 77th minute but could get no power on it.
Marcus Rashford was then brought on with four minutes remaining and immediately showed a spark, but it was all too little, too late, per WhoScored.com:
Iceland were not even hanging on by the end and fully deserved the win, and the celebrations were spectacular on the final whistle, per PaddyPower:
England, meanwhile, have to ponder their complete lack of clinical finishing throughout the entire tournament, per Opta:
It was widely assumed England would be the side facing hosts France in the quarter-finals on Sunday, but that honour now falls to Iceland, and they could yet cause another upset.
Italy 2-0 Spain
Italy began their match as the brighter side, and a Pelle header drew a brilliant one-handed save from De Gea after nine minutes following an excellent ball into the box from Alessandro Florenzi.
The Manchester United goalkeeper was called into action again, as he tipped Emanuele Giaccherini's overhead kick onto the post two minutes later, although the Sunderland man was subsequently whistled for a dangerous play, per the New York Times' Sam Borden:
For the first half hour, the Azzurri were hugely dominant, and they finally got their reward in the 33rd minute after De Gea spilled Eder's powerful free-kick from 25 yards, and Chiellini followed in to bundle home.
Per football writer Liam Canning, De Gea was partially at fault, but Spain could have been in worse shape had it not been for his excellent work early in the half:
He was at it again on the stroke of half-time, keeping out Giaccherini's stinging effort from the edge of the box with a flying right-handed stop.
Per BBC Match of the Day's Gary Lineker, De Gea was undoubtedly Spain's star man in the first half, an indication of just how impressive Italy looked going forward:
Spanish football writer Guillem Balague gave his assessment of both sides at the break:
Unsurprisingly, Spain manager Vicente del Bosque made a change at half-time, throwing on Aritz Aduriz in place of Nolito.
Alvaro Morata had a chance to equalise four minutes into the second half but could only direct his free header from six yards out into the hands of Gianluigi Buffon.
In the 56th minute, it was De Gea in action again, as he saved a one-on-one chance from Eder after the Sampdoria man had been released by Pelle.

La Roja finally began to get a foothold in the game after the hour mark, but they remained susceptible to being punished by Italy on the break.
Andres Iniesta and Gerard Pique both tried their luck from distance, but Buffon was equal to both efforts.
Buffon then made his biggest contribution to the match, keeping out Pique's fine volley attempt in the last minute of normal time to preserve Italy's lead.
As Spain pushed forward, Italy then sealed their win when Pelle finished off a quick counter-attack, volleying home from close range after Matteo Darmian's ball from the right was deflected into his path.
