SAINT-ETIENNE, France (AP) " A goal from Birkir Bjarnason earned Iceland a shock 1-1 draw with Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal on Tuesday at the European Championship, the tiny Scandinavian nation's first ever match at a major tournament. "We should have scored more goals, there is no secret about that," Portugal coach Fernando Santos said. With a population of 330,000, Iceland is the smallest nation ever to play at a European Championship. Portugal had wasted many good chances before then, notably in the 22nd minute when Ronaldo found Nani in the box with a precise cross. Nani jumped higher than the Iceland defenders but his powerful header hit the feet of keeper Hannes Halldorsson.
