Northern Ireland’s ‘amazing feeling’ after European Championship qualification

Northern Ireland head coach Michael O’Neill paid tribute to the team for buying into his philosophy after they sealed their place at next summer’s European Championship last night.

Two goals from captain Steven Davis, either side of Josh Magennis’ header, lifted Northern Ireland to a 3-1 win over Greece on a historic night at Windsor Park.

After leading the nation to their first major finals since the 1986 World Cup, O’Neill was quick to hail his players.
