Steele Northern Ireland call up not far off - O'Neill

Northern Ireland boss Michael O'Neill says that uncapped Jonny Steele will soon get his chance to play for his country.

O'Neill says logistics may make it difficult for Steele to be included in his squad for the World Cup qualifier against Russia on 14 August.

"He has a game for New York Red Bulls on the Sunday [before the Russia game] so that wouldn't be ideal," said O'Neill.

"(But) I am sure he will get his chance soon."
