Northern Ireland secured a spot in the Women's Euro 2025 play-offs with a 2-0 victory in Malta.
An early comedic own goal from Emma Lipman, overhitting her backpass to Patricia Ebejer and seeing the ball beat the goalkeeper, was followed by Kerry Beattie’s 80th-minute header.
Victory moved Northern Ireland into second place in League B Group 3 and, with a final home qualifier against Bosnia and Herzegovina next week, should they maintain that position they could go into the play-off draw as a seeded team.
