Estonia V Northern Ireland

[Sarge]

Whyte expected to start, will Sykes make the final squad?

what time do the teams get announced for this 5pm kick off Euro 2020 qualifier?

 

[Sarge]

and seconds after I post the above ^^ .... Whyte starts, but Sykes misses out (on this one)

Oxford United's Gavin Whyte plays 90 minutes in Northern Ireland's win, but Mark Sykes misses out

GAVIN Whyte played his first 90 minutes for Northern Ireland's senior side as Michael O'Neill's side came from behind to win against Estonia.

[Sarge]

!5 mins in and Whyte is growing into the game , with a couple of attacking forays forward

 

[Sarge]

Estonia's first shot on goal and its Estonia 1 N. I. 0

There have been times that the commentators have been singing Whyte's praises so much, I've wondered whether they have been "sponsored" by his agent

 

[Sarge]

blimey nearly 2-0 ...dissallowed for a foul despite Estonia netting a second time

Northern Ireland seem to be struggling as they switch tactics to a more (ineffective) direct approach

Ht Estonia 1 N.I. 0

 

[stokeu]

anyone got a stream?

 

[Sarge]

Whyte wins a free kick...but NI get hit on the break from a wasted free kick...nearly 2-0 as Estonia hit the woodwork

 

[Sarge]

Boyce replaced by Washington for NI ... and immediately Estonia keeper called into action , tipping Washington's shot over

 

[Sarge]

Whyte's shot on goal blocked

 

[Sarge]

Both Estonia & NI make a substitution each ... 2nd change for NI

 

[Sarge]

NI building a bit of pressure ... but as yet not cutting edge finishing

 

[Sarge]

3rd Substitution for NI with 20 min left...NI going 2 up top now
Whyte will play the full game

 

[Manorlounger]

You would have to say, Whyte has not really put a foot wrong.

 

[Manorlounger]

1 - 1

 

[Manorlounger]

1 - 2 Norn Ireland!!!

 

[andystroud]

2-1 Northern Ireland (Magennis) possibly his second goal

 

[Sarge]

final sub on for Estonia with 5 min to go

 

[Sarge]

2-1 Northern Ireland (Magennis) possibly his second goal

it was, got a deflection for the first, and the two goals were just 167 secs apart

 

[Manorlounger]

Result. Well played in the 2nd half. Gavin Whyte valued at £4 million by the commentator ( well, that's what he thought we would want!)
