Faroe Islands boost World Cup hopes with brilliant victory over Czech Republic

The Faroe Islands produced a stunning victory over the Czech Republic to boost their hopes of qualifying for the World Cup.

The European minnows made it four wins from their last five qualifiers, following up Thursday’s remarkable 4-0 success against Montenegro by defeating the Czechs 2-1.

All the goals came in the final quarter of the match, with Adam Karabec cancelling out Hanus Sorensen’s opener only for Martin Agnarsson to net an 81st-minute winner.

Full-time. 2:1 for the hosts.
