An Icelandic football commentator has become a social media sensation following his commentary of the national team's late winner against Austria yesterday at Euro 2016.

Better known as Gummi Ben, former Iceland international turned commentator Gudmundur Benediktsson was already developing a growing fan base for his enthusiastic style behind the microphone.

But that popularity spiked after his hysterical call of Arnor Traustason's goal in the last minute of injury time against Austria at the Stade de France, handing Iceland a 2-1 victory and putting them through to the round of 16.

The commentator's audible elation is deafening as he completely loses himself in Iceland's success. Iceland will now face England on Monday.
