Worthington hails Man Utd youngster Corry Evans after Northern Ireland win

Northern Ireland boss Nigel Worthington hailed matchwinner Corry Evans in their victory over Slovenia.

The Manchester United midfielder, kid brother of senior defender Jonny, struck the only goal of the game.

"Whatever big brother can do little brother can do as well," said Worthington.

"What a family that is. Young Corry is a fantastic young professional. I have no fears about Corry. He showed what he can do and not just with his goal.

"He has a lot of ability and is a very honest young man. I had no qualms about putting him on and the goal was a nice little surprise."
