Jackie Burns produces a super stop to prevent Emina Ekic from opening the scoring.

She wriggled past Demi Vance and Keri Halliday before seeing her strike parried behind by Burns for a corner.

That was way too easy for Ekic from a Northern Ireland point of view.

Marija Milinkovic strides forward and curls an effort straight at Jackie Burns.

Northern Ireland go close to breaking the deadlock as Simeone Magill's effort is cleared off the line after a goalmouth scramble.

Rebecca McKenna surges into the box before seeing her low cross cleared before Lauren Wade can get on the end of it.

Northern Ireland look dangerous when they get the likes of McKenna and Demi Vance on the ball in wide areas.

Northern Ireland just have to get back to the basics, start to play feet and do the things that we are strong at. Play out wide to our wingers and get it into the box and make sure we have runners going forward.

How has Simone Magill not scored from there?

A deep free-kick into the box from Megan Bell causes havoc in the Bosnia box.

The ball eventually falls to Magill just a couple of yards from goal, but she can't sort her feet out and her low effort is smothered by Envera Hasanbegovic before the home side clear.

This has already been more exciting than the entire 90 minutes at Windsor Park on Friday.

Both teams are wanting to have a proper go early doors. We'll see how long that approach can last in the heat.

The hosts are flying into challenges, trying to rattle the Northern Irish midfield. They're standing firm so far.

After an open start to the game it has been rather scrappy in the last five minutes as Northern Ireland try to get a foothold.

Obviously our goalkeeper is making the first real save of the game and it's important Northern Ireland stay switched on during the first five minutes and don't concede an early goal.

It has been a nervy start for Northern Ireland, who have failed to find their rhythm in these early stages and have been sloppy in possession.

The home side go close to opening the scoring as Emina Ekic puts in a low cross which Maja Jelcic flicks towards goal, but Jackie Burns manages to save.

An early worry now for Northern Ireland with Chloe McCarron down.

Northern Ireland have to be more creative in the final third and I think we have made positives changes with the likes of Keri Halliday and Emily Wilson. Those players can unlock defences and that's what we have to do.

Simone Magill gets the game underway.

Can Northern Ireland pick up a first win in their Euro 2025 qualifying campaign?

The teams are on the pitch ahead of kick-off here in a sunny Zenica.

First, it is time for the anthems.

Bosnia, who have never qualified for the major tournament, have lost their last three games without scoring, conceding 13 goals in that time.

Angela Platt, director of women's football at the Irish FA, says she is "very happy" with the tenure of Tanya Oxtoby as Northern Ireland manager.

Former Chelsea assistant manager Oxtoby was appointed in August.

Oxtoby's NI finished third in their Nations League group and drew their opening Euro 2025 qualifier with Malta.

"The professionalism and standards that she has brought to the table really means our players are aspiring to be better every single day," Platt said.

The ground, based at BIH headquarters, is nestled in the hills above the small city of Zenica, which is about an hour away from capital Sarajevo.

There's a fun fair on the 20-minute walk from the hotel to the stadium and Northern Ireland will be looking to put on a thriller after a bit of a rollercoaster ride over the past eight months.

It's been a disprupted week with Tanya Oxtoby's illness, but can Northern Ireland pull off a big result and get their campaign back on track? Only time will tell.

Also, what a day for Keri Halliday on her first start. She's tipped for a big future and it's a big day for her and her family.

Goalkeeper Jackie Burns says it was "unbelievable" to make her Northern Ireland return after a 507-day gap.

Burns' previous cap came against Italy in December 2022 after injuring her Achilles in April 2023.

She started and kept a clean sheet in Northern Ireland's goalless draw with Malta in their opening Euro 2025 qualifier last Friday.
