Iceland are on the brink of qualifying for their first World Cup following victory in Turkey on Friday.
Burnley’s Johann Gudmundsson opened the scoring in the first half, latching onto a cross at the far post.
Further goals from Aston Villa’s Birkir Bjarnason and Kari Arnason ended Turkey‘s hopes and secured a 3-0 win.
Iceland, who lead Group I with 19 points – two ahead of Croatia and Ukraine – play sixth-placed Kosovo in their last game on Monday.
Victory for Iceland would secure qualification but they are guaranteed a top-two finish in their group after Croatia drew 1-1 with Finland, also on Friday.
Ukraine‘s Andriy Yarmolenko made sure of a 2-0 victory over Kosovo – who have only taken one point from nine games in their debut World Cup qualification campaign – after Leart Paqarada opened the scoring with an own goal in the second half.
Iceland, with a population of only 333,000, knocked England out in the last 16 of Euro 2016, prompting the resignation of England boss Roy Hodgson.
