    FT: North Macedonia 0-11 Northern Ireland

    Ruthless from start to finish.

    Northern Ireland are clearly stronger than North Macedonia across the pitch, but Kenny Shiels' side still needed to take their chances to get what they needed in Skopje.

    They did just that, with 11 goals coming from Simone Magill (4), Rachel Furness (3), Rebecca McKenna, Lauren Wade, Kirsty McGuinness and Rebecca Holloway.

    It's a record-breaking win for the Green and White Army, but it's a quick turnaround as North Macedonia visit Belfast on Monday evening.

    If Shiels' players can rediscover their golden touch in front of goal, the home fans will plenty to cheer about at Seaview.

    If you missed the game, catch up with Andy Gray's report here.

    And keep an eye out as we'll have all the goals on the website shortly.

    Thanks for joining us and catch you on Monday!

    That was brilliant from Northern Ireland. They were so, so good and it was a professional job in the end.

    We get to do it all over again in front of a packed Seaview on Monday.

    Holloway completes the scoring with number 11

  4. FULL-TIME

    North Macedonia 0-11 Northern Ireland

    Something tells me North Macedonia aren't looking forward to visiting Belfast on Monday evening.

    Four goals for Simone Magill, a hat-trick for Rachel Furness to draw the Liverpool star level with David Healy's record of 36, and goals from Rebecca McKenna, Lauren Wade, Kirsty McGuinness and Rebecca Holloway lift Northern Ireland to their biggest ever win in Skopje.

    Kenny Shiels' side draw level on 10 points with Austria, who face England on Saturday at the Stadium of Light.

  5. goal

    GOAL - Rebecca Holloway

    North Macedonia 0-11 Northern Ireland

    Rebecca Holloway gets the goal she richly deserves.

    She has been full of industry and invention all afternoon and rounds out the scoring on a red-letter day for Northern Ireland.

  6. Magill hits her third

    North Macedonia 0-9 Northern Ireland

    But she hasn't stopped there...

    Magill gets her hat-trick to make it 9-0 to NI

  7. goal

    GOAL - Simone Magill

    North Macedonia 0-10 Northern Ireland

    Magill's fourth!

    The home defence can't deal with a long ball over the top and Magill calmly lifts it over the keeper.

  8. Furness completes hat-trick to match Healy

    North Macedonia 0-9 Northern Ireland

    Furness claims the hat-trick

  9. North Macedonia 0-9 Northern Ireland

    Just over five minutes of normal time remaining.

    Can Northern Ireland get a 10th?

  10. North Macedonia 0-9 Northern Ireland

    Two more chances for 10 goes begging as Lauren Wade slices over after Caragh Hamilton's drive and cut-back.

    Seconds later, Simone Magill slides a pass into Nadene Caldwell, who is denied by a superb Magdalena Lekovska save.

  11. North Macedonia 0-9 Northern Ireland

    The indefatigable Lauren Wade bursts into the box and finds Simone Magill, but she can't finish this time!

  12. SUBSTITUTION

    North Macedonia 0-9 Northern Ireland

    Caragh Hamilton comes to replace Rebecca McKenna.

    Earlier, Rachel Furness was replaced by Nadene Caldwell, so the Liverpool midfielder won't be surpassing David Healy this afternoon.

  13. goal

    GOAL - Simone Magill

    North Macedonia 0-9 Northern Ireland

    Now it's Simone Magill's turn to complete her hat-trick!

    Just seconds after heading wide, the forward pounces on a poor pass out of defence and slots the ball low into the net.

    If it stays this way, this will be the biggest win in Northern Ireland's history.

  14. goal

    GOAL - Rachel Furness

    North Macedonia 0-8 Northern Ireland

    There's the hat-trick!

    Simone Magill can't get on the end of Kirsty McGuinness' cross but there's Rachel Furness to smash home and complete her treble!

    It's a landmark goal for the midfielder, too, as it draws her level with all-time leading Northern Irish goalscorer David Healy on 36 goals.

  15. North Macedonia 0-7 Northern Ireland

    Ulza Maksuti is felled by Kelsie Burrows and decides to have a go from all of 35 yards, but her free-kick sails well over Jackie Burns' crossbar.

    North Macedonia's second shot of the game.

  16. North Macedonia 0-7 Northern Ireland

    Good save from Lekovska to deny Furness her hat-trick after the Liverpool midfielder got her head to Vance's corner.

  17. North Macedonia 0-7 Northern Ireland

    No penalty this time! Simone Magill bursts clear of Ana Milchevska and goes down under the defender's challenge.

    The referee tells the Everton forward to get to her feet.

  18. North Macedonia 0-7 Northern Ireland

    Demi Vance floats a cross in from the left flank. It drifts towards the goal but lands on top of it!

    The keeper was scrambling there...

  19. Giving youth a chance

    North Macedonia 0-7 Northern Ireland

    Andy Gray
    BBC Sport NI

    With a comfortable lead Shiels can afford the opportunity to rest some of his star players ahead of Monday's return fixture.

    It's great to see Rachel McLaren make her debut in place of Crusaders' team-mate Julie Nelson and the youngster hasn't looked out of place at all, brining the ball confidently out of defence on several occasions.

    Kelsie Burrows, so impressive at Wembley against England, is also on and should have a more relaxing afternoon this time around.

    It wouldn't be a surprise to see Kerry Beattie or Joely Andrews introduced later on after impressive campaigns for Glentoran.

  20. North Macedonia 0-7 Northern Ireland

    Rebecca McKenna narrowly misses the target with a right-footed drive from the edge of the box.

    They're making us wait for the eighth...
