Shayne Lavery in action for Northern Ireland - live updates

Key Events

  • FT: Northern Ireland 0-1 Hungary
  • Blackpool striker Shayne Lavery hoping to earn 10th international cap
  • Fleetwood prospect Paddy Lane could make his debut
  • Former Seasiders Dan Ballard and Jordan Thompson also in the squad

Shayne Lavery and Dion Charles up front together is fun to watch. Both of them never stop running.

He’s barely been on 60 seconds and Shayne Lavery is already forcing the Hungarian backline into some hurried clearance.

That’s the Lavery we know and love.

Shayne Lavery is on! It’s a 10th cap for the striker and he’s got just over 20 minutes to grab a goal...

Former Seasider Jordan Thompson also enters the fray.

Georger Saville and Stuart Dallas are on, but there’s still no Shayne Lavery.

Paddy Lane is one of the two players to make way.

56 - Goal Hungary (0-1)

Roland Sallai capitalises on a defensive mix-up. Looked to be a poor back pass from Niall McGinn.

Paddy Lane’s attempted cross from the left flank almost deceives the keeper and drops over his head! But it’s onto the roof of the net instead.

Kenny Dougall left on the bench...again

Hungary have come out of the blocks well at the start of the second-half, getting into some promising positions in the final third.

Northern Ireland are holding firm though.

Dion Charles is straight into the thick of the action as he races through on goal before appearing to be pulled down by the last man, but the referee disagrees.

Controversial one, that.

We’re back underway

Northern Ireland get the second-half underway.

Another former Seasider is on in the form of Dion Charles, but no Shayne Lavery yet.
