Yea and it does not matter what order they are in for the draw

Mr.Nice Guy

They could play for another hour and I don't think Ukraine would score.

If I were a Ukraine fan, I'd be pretty disappointed with the abjectness of their performance.

Boom boom for N. Ireland. +2 goal difference

Wow, that's how you defend a lead and run the clock down. Score another!

AllGunsBlazing

holy crap!!!!

Fully deserved for the North. Ukraine have been baffingly bad, haven't looked interested whatsoever.

Someone needs to get a gif of that guy looking crazy in the 77min of the game

I never thought Ukraine were this crap. Fair play to the north. If only they were a bit more positive against Poland

AllGunsBlazing

This lot winning their qualifying group was no fluke. They definitely have something about them.

Mr.Nice Guy

They fully deserved the win as Ukraine were rubbish. Well done to Michael O'Neill.

I wonder will we manage any win in this tournament? Wouldn't bet on it.

adox

Not an ideal result for us but **** it, fair play to them.
Dowie was hilarious as co commentator on ITV roaring at the top of his voice when the goals went in.

Mec27

You need to win games in these cups, gallant 1 1 draws that ireland specialize in dont cut it

Jayop

Hon the nordies!!!

kksaints

Fantastic and well deserved win for the North. Apart from the last twenty minutes the Ukrainians rarely threatened.

Only fluke team to be there are Albania simply because they were awarded a game and 3 goals V Serbia while Serbia had 3 points taken off them leaving there group in a mess

The Golden Miller

Fcuk sake

Brilliant stuff, NI should go into the next round on the back of that result, much improved display after the Poland game.

Three draws would most likely get you through in this format.

Jayop

If Germany beat Poland tonight then Ni go second on GD. That'll be Germany a cert to top the group and then they may rest players against NI for the final game. They're pretty sure to qualify in 3rd now with the GD lead over Ukraine.

Grandeeod

Commentator suggested the player would take it into the corner to run down time, but no, he ****ing went for it. I applaud that kind of attitude. The Republic wouldn't be sitting on one point if they had the same attitude.

Well down NI..from a southie.

Elmer Blooker

Glad for Michael O'Neill and a just reward for all his hard work.
Ukraine a disgrace, something seriously wrong there. I wonder if there is any money to even pay the players with the state the country is in.
They couldn't be arsed.

No they won't go to 2nd tonight, goes head to head. But they would be in charge for 2nd if Germany beat all 3 teams and they all beat each other and finish on 3 points

We have a **** mentality\belief

Richard Hillman

Up The North!!!!

A 1 goal loss to Germany may be enough. A draw will definitely get in.That second goal was a biggie

Wish I could go out and get langered right now.

Amazing.

Mickeroo

Great result, be nice to see them get out of the group

Finishing 3rd = Playing England in the last 16 as it would stand right now

Congrats to Northern Ireland on a super win. Incredible stuff.

AllGunsBlazing

Can't help but wonder how this affects Roi-mon's thinking. Gonna have to risk it in at least one game - which is not his style.

Diabhal Beag

There's nothing better than seeing a team going for the jugular rather than running it into the corner. Was so happy when McGinn scored after Magennis' ball through.
