West Bromwich Albion

: Two goals – two headers – from West Bromwich Albion defender Gareth McAuley– sent the Irish on their way, according to The Independent. McAuley scored on 12 and 71 minutes. Not since 1986 have Northern Ireland achieved that. His is a happy habit – five goals in his last 11 internationals – though two in one game is rare. Edmundsson red card came in the 65th minute and, within 10 minutes, McAuley had his second while Kyle Lafferty had gleefully belted in a third. In between, Joan Simun Edmundsson – once of Newcastle United and Gateshead – equalised, but was later sent off. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
