    John O'Neill
    Former Northern Ireland defender on BBC Radio Ulster

    This is the best I've seen Dion Charles play.

    He is unlucky not to score but he has been putting their back four under all sorts of pressure. Maybe not getting on the end of it, but he's made it difficult for them to clear.

  20. Northern Ireland 1-0 Denmark

    And now Dion Charles gives away a free-kick on the other side but Dale Taylor is back there to hook it clear.
