Euro 2016: NI Preparing To Play Against Germany

Northern Ireland players are preparing to play against world champions Germany in the Euro 2016.

The crucial football match is to take place at the Parc de Princes in Paris this evening, 21 June, at 5pm.

NI Manager Michael O'Neill said he believes his team can hurt Germany.

He said: "We have proved in the past we are a good counter attacking team...no team is flawless.

"We don't have an arrogance about us, we're fairly humble and an hardworking team but a team that has goals of our own. Hopefully with the level of performance we can win some more friends and have further participation in the tournament."
