Michelle, High Peak: I went to the match with my wife - I saw Belgium v Iceland at Manchester City's Academy Stadium. Before the tournament, Iceland's Sara Bjork Gunnarsdottir had criticised the small stadium, but the fans were so great the atmosphere was amazing. We didn't know who to support as we were neutrals, but we found ourselves sitting behind a bunch of Belgian fans and their band, who were brilliant. Loads of noise, lots of singing and cheering from before kick-off to the final whistle. We got right behind them. The Iceland fans were fantastic too, doing the thunderclap and singing back and forth across the stands.
