Northern Ireland sign off on World Cup qualifying attempt with victory in Latvia
Northern Ireland took advantage of three own goals to wrap up their Women’s World Cup qualifying campaign with a 3-1 win in Latvia.
Anastasija Rocane opened the scoring at the right end for the hosts but an own goal by keeper Enija-Anna Vaivode hauled Kenny Shiels’ side level before the break.
Arta Luize Lubina deflected a corner into her own net two minutes from time before Vaivode conceded her second own goal in stoppage time as Northern Ireland confirmed their third-placed finish in Group D.
