Readers who read our last article will remember our journey to the game. Missing the ferry, ending up stranded, it was, in its simplest term, an absolute cluster**** of a journey – something that we have now told ourselves was a rite of passage. An inaugural European pilgrimage, baptised by the football gods not via holy water but via a confusing, irrational, and frustrating local transport link.

One would then hope, naturally, that the game would be worth it. It was. We entered Tórsøllur, the national stadium of the Faroe Islands, some 40 minutes before kick-off. The teams were warming up, the beers were flowing, and… soup and toast were on offer
