NI make huge strides despite Georgia frustration

With eight points from four games, Northern Ireland show real progress through what manager Michael O'Neill calls "one of the most enjoyable windows" he has had in international football.

Northern Ireland drew both home games on the Nations League window 0-0

Northern Ireland's first nine points in the Uefa Nations League were accumulated over the grand total of 17 games.

Finishing their four-game window with a stalemate against Georgia on Monday night ensured Michael O'Neill's side earned eight across a mere 11 days.

It says plenty about the growing mood around this young side that, even after what was undoubtedly their best ever Nations League window, fans filed out of Windsor Park frustrated that it was not more.

Isaac Price's saved penalty in the 83rd minute was naturally the most glaring missed opportunity to take all three points in a second consecutive goalless draw in Belfast after Hungary left with a point last week.
