Northern Ireland produced a spirited display at Slovakia’s National Training Centre in Poprad
Vitalii Roman's goal in the 70th minute decided a tight game at Slovakia’s National Training Centre in Poprad.
Ukrainian defender Arsenii Batahov shot wide before Stephen McMullan produced a decent save to deny winger Maksym Braharu. Northern Ireland started the second half on the front foot, with McGuckin forcing a save from Neshcheret. Roman produced the defining moment of the game, arrowing a shot into the corner of the net after being teed up inside the area by substitute Illia Kvasnytsia.
