The defensive display of Northern Ireland, including Sheffield Wednesday goalkeeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell, received the ultimate praise on Monday night after they held European champions Italy to a goalless draw in Belfast.

Italy needed to win at the National Stadium to top the group and avoid a play-off for a place at next year’s World Cup in Qatar.

However, the Northern Irish were superb, particularly at the back with Peacock-Farrell playing his part in a special shut-out in front of a bouncing Greena and Whte Army.
