Ian Baraclough refused to write off Northern Ireland’s hopes of topping their Nations League group despite another dispiriting display in Sunday’s goalless draw away to Cyprus.
Northern Ireland’s winless record in this competition extended to 12 games as Baraclough’s men, top seeds in Group 2 following their relegation to League C, followed Thursday’s 1-0 home defeat to Greece with a poor performance in which Cyprus had the better chances.
