Dreams are what give
life its all-round essence and for the Norn Iron, dreaming of another major
event is something within their reach and aims.
After their amazing
presentation and one of a kind performance in the past Euros, the Boys in Green
and White are determined for the impossible of feats and looking forward to
score another success in the Michael O’ Neill era.
With group C in full
play, 26 March will be an important date from the northern part of the Emerald
Isle and going against a discreet Norway national squad, playing as a local.
As Windsor Park in
the background and a whole nation behind the second placeholders in their
group, the Norn Iron is up and ready to start something serious and spectacular
in this World Cup qualifiers.
This group is hungry,
ambitious, and looking forward to a second round play, seals the deal with a
pass as a European representative to Russia 2018, and continues making history
under the mandate Michael O’ Neill.
So far, with Germany
in the lead of group C and Northern Ireland trailing by just five points
anything can happen, but for now, second place is a good spot to advance into
the next rounds and there demonstrate their mettle.
That is the utmost goal
of Manager Michael O’ Neill.
Showing off the
readiness and new faces, the Green and White bunch is already complete as its Manager
already trimmed his roster and with returning players as well new faces that
can make their debut and maybe the difference.
Leaving several
players out due to injuries and suspensions, new players is the highlight of
the recent call up by the Norn Iron Boss O’ Neill.
As key players in the
off list as Paddy Mc Nair- knee, keeper Trevor Carson and striker Billy Mc Kay-
groin and Will Grigg- knee are the list of absents but that opened the doors to
other players already recovered and poised for the challenge.
Very well with the
suspension of Shane Ferguson comes the call up for Oldham Ryan Mc Laughlin,
Corry Evans from Blackburn, and Craig Carthcart from Watford and 39 year old
veteran keeper from Linfield Roy Carroll.
Another highlight of
the Green and White Army will be its defensive backfield composed by a foursome
from the English Premier League in Jonny Evans and Gareth Mc Auley from West
Brom, Watford’s Craig Carthcart to make up his threesome.
The list of 24 for
the Norn Iron is complete with players from English Premiership and
Championship, Scottish Premiership and North Ireland Premiership.
At the end, the North
Ireland squads is up, ready to net three points of gold from the Norwegians,
and ready themselves to their next match at Baku, and face a renewed Azerbaijani
squad on June 10.
No surprise if this squad
delivers a key win and with the support of its faithful at the colossus of
Belfast to deliver a win and continue adding points in their favor, if they
would like to make the trek to Russia 2018.
