MOSCOW (Reuters) - Iceland fans made the most of their reputation as fiery Vikings on Saturday, practising their thunderous "Viking clap" ahead of their World Cup match in Moscow.

The smallest nation in the tournament, with around 332,000 people, Iceland will be taking on Latin American giants, Argentina - themselves renowned for their rowdy fans - later on in the day at Spartak Stadium.
