Right, I'm away for a packet of cheese and onion and a cuppa... #NIRSVK #WCQ

With #Germany winning 4-0 against whipping boys #Luxembourg, this is how Group A looks. And if you're a #NorthernIreland fan, you'll be absolutely delighted. Terrific night for the #GAWA in Belfast #NIRSVK #GERLUX #WCQ

Massive result #NIRSVK #WCQ

Such a fun team, Northern Ireland. Seriously. :-) #nirsvk

FT #NorthernIreland 2-0 #Slovakia I Hrosovsky OG and Hume give NI massive 3 points in front of the #GAWA at Windsor #NIRSVK #WCQ

Oof, Bradley nearly doing a Ricky Villa there. #NIRSVK

Bradley attempting a Marseille roulette in the box. Love it 👏 His last action of the night as he goes of for Magennis and NI look to run down the clock #NIRSVK #WCQ

Big chance this for Slovakia. Freekick in range as Hrosovsky is replaced by Benes whilst Strelec is replaced by Mraz #NIRSVK #WCQ

10 years ago this week, the #GAWA were celebrating as Northern Ireland beat Greece 3-1 to qualify for Euro 2016. Will tonight have the same significance further down the line? 🤔 Either way, this would be a massive 3 points #NIRSVK #WCQ

If that decides it, the #SAFC man has earned a huge win ahead of Germany's visit to Windsor on Monday. What a finish it was too. Deft #NIRSVK #WCQ

#NIRSVK #WCQ

YES NORTHERN IRELAND!!!!! What a goal! #NIRSVK

Dubravka comes for it, it's a weak punch. Hume volleys it over the #BurnleyFC 'keeper's head #NIRSVK #WCQ

And just like that! What a lob from Trai Hume! #NIRSVK #WCQ

Price has unbelievable tekkers #NIRSVK #WCQ

If Northern Ireland do grab a 2nd, it's surely curtains for Slovakia. That may have been their best chance to do it though. We'll see. 10 mins to go #NIRSVK #WCQ

Brilliant curler from Shea Charles, but a top quality save from Dubravka #NIRSVK #WCQ

NI do look like they're starting to tire though. #GAWA will no doubt do their best to keep the encouragement going, but there might need to be more changes in the last 10 #NIRSVK #WCQ

Moments later, skipper Bradley is booked for a less bad challenge. That sees the #LFC man suspended for Monday's match with Germany. Big loss ahead of that game. Not justified, in my view #NIRSVK #WCQ

How has Bero avoided a booking there? Poor challenge on Price. Should've been a yellow #NIRSVK #WCQ

Dion Charles comes on for Reid #NIRSVK #WCQ

Spelling a bit off there. Should've been Gyomber. Good job I didn't misspell Schranz (that's close to a German slang word I'll not type in here 🤭) #NIRSVK #WCQ

Slovakia have a lad taking the throw ins who does a foul throw every time. #nirsvk

Do love a (fair) cruncher though, and Ali McCann delivers a good one. Sliding in well to prevent a counter #NIRSVK #WCQ

Michael O'Neill may well look to shuffle the pack, with Slovakia starting to come into the game. But NI still look terrific coming forward, as #WBA midfielder Price wins a corner #NIRSVK #WCQ

Huge chance for Slovakia. Strelec does everything right, but it goes mere millimetres wide of Peacock-Farrell's goal. Now the #BlackpoolFC loanee is down, having overstretched #NIRSVK #WCQ

Calzona, rather, has also brought Rigo - their hero against Luxembourg - on for Duda #NIRSVK #WCQ

Schranz and Gjomber looked like Slovakia's best hope of getting back into this, but the former is replaced Harasalin. Slovakia boss Calzonia may well feel that the NI left is where Slovakia can ask questions #NIRSVK #WCQ
