Michael O'Neill says that Northern Ireland will ensure that Newcastle United left-back Jamal Lewis is undergoing a careful game plan during the Euro 2024 qualifiers.
Lewis had a good game for Northern Ireland during their 2-0 win over San Marino and provided an assist for Bolton's Dion Charles to score the game-sealing goal in Group H to get their Euros campaign off to a positive start. Lewis was withdrawn before the end of the game in San Marino but was simply being managed prudently by O'Neill.
O'Neill said that Lewis was part of a group of his internationals that have not played much football, with just one appearance for Newcastle this year so far in the FA Cup against Sheff Wed and that he was always thinking ahead to Sunday's clash with Finland once the group points were in the bag.
