But from then on the first half was pretty much all Northern Ireland, their performance having everything but a goal as they had 12 attempts in the opening 45 minutes, forcing seven saves. In the 15th minute, Paddy McNair was unmarked as he met George Saville’s free-kick but sent his header wide. But the impetus was gone as Northern Ireland had to settle for a point ahead of Tuesday’s match at home to Bulgaria.
