Northern Ireland 1 Bosnia and Herzegovina 2Northern Ireland's Nations League campaign got off to a frustrating start as they lost 2-1 to Bosnia and Herzegovina despite dominating the match. It was the first serious foray forward from the visitors but a warning that Northern Ireland did not heed. Northern Ireland struggled to muster a response as the Windsor Park atmosphere became muted, leaving O'Neill with work to do at half-time. The manager seemed to have found the right words as Northern Ireland started the second half firmly on the front foot. Grigg finally got Northern Ireland on the scoresheet in stoppage time with a neat hooked volley from Boyce's header down to set up a frantic finale.
