[@GordonCaledonia]

Rest in peace, Bjørge Lillelien. Thank you for giving us one of the great moments in sports commentary!

[@davidbatthews3811]

He was actually commentating for radio.

[@deargdoom.69]

Total Legend Bjørge Lillelien. Lady Diana, Maggie Thatcher. Love it!!!

[@oldsaltshippers]

Would have been far better if they had just played it instead of talking all over it offering a celeb "expert" opinion.

[@thunderc45]

Agreed. Who the fuk are they anyway.

[@oldsaltshippers]

thunderc45 No one I know or have heard of.

[@540BC]

This is great! And I'm English

[@FreddieBear1]

I love this video!!

[@georgemorley1029]

I just wanted to hear Bjorge Lillelien, not these fruits.

[@oatydave3814]

preciously, actually just googled it, this guy died way back in 1987, but who'll ever forget him??

[@CheckYourHealthUS]

Voiced by Sean Bean?

[@user-td4do3op2d]

Exactly what I was about to comment.

[@norina195]

Yes

[@basedelon]

Sean Bean did not survive this documentary

[@mftmss7086]

Sean Penn

[@vregutten]

Hahahahaha han va stor!! MEGA STOR!!!

[@roybalshjoi4341]

Bryan Robson debut for England scored the goal if i remember right ?

[@MrJonno85]

Scored the goal (I think his first for England) but not his debut.

[@metahduh4003]

If England won the EU Championship Or the World Cup - now That would be a different story.

[@kevinwhelan9607]

I bet anyone reading this that they can't find a video of a British footballer saying "beaten" instead of "beat" or indeed one who possesses even a basic grasp of grammar ("I seen him on me right..."). You won't find any such video. "Yeah, Dave, we got beat ten nil innit". Also, an interview with a player that doesn't feature them using "obviously" in every other sentence. "Obviously" has lots of syllables; it makes a bloke sound intelligent. "At the end of the day" is also marvellous during a summing up- obviously...

[@Irfan87]

Just fyi, that's Ned Stark narrating.

[@rahan9886]

Anthony Eden

[@michaelahern9883]

2-1 not 2-0 .

[@PokePresto]

Is it Sean Bean???

[@SteveH7422]

Haha its like Norway invaded England!

[@JohnSmith-hk1lx]

We did that as well - a few years ago

[@stephenreeds3672]

It was wonderful. Lord Beaverbrook.. he was Canadian. Your boys took a helluva beating! 2-1. 2 hopeful digs at the ball. Ah well. If it made them happy. Wld love an Eng commentator to do the same if we ever beat Denmark. Edvard Greig, Edvard Munch, Henrik Ibsen, Quisling (a name synonymous with traitors) erm. That's it. Ahah? Silly sod.. it's only a football match.

[@audunflaaten8228]

Grieg, Munch, Ibsen, Quisling - they are all Norwegian, not Danish :)

[@Vingul]

Denmark? Bruh. Beating England was huge for Norway, obviously it wouldn't have been the same if... er.... England beat Denmark.

[@abedfo88]

Sean Bean

[@bardo0007]

LOL!

[@Ground53]

The "comedian" in the hat has clearly never seen the commentary

[@robdubz1510]

england women winning now. #womenworldcup

[@dazza0018]

That Icelandic commentator makes this guy look sane!

[@patrickanderson9023]

This piece commentary was way better than iceland.
