Captain Jonny Evans ended the night limping heavily after taking a late blow to his foot, having already been down in the first half to receive treatment.

O’Neill also commented on the defeat which was Northern Ireland’s fifth loss by a 1-0 scoreline and believes his side gave it everything after falling behind to Adam Cerin’s free-kick on five minutes, before losing Shea Charles to a second-half red card for two yellow card offences.
