Man Utd defender Evans: I wasn't good enough

Manchester United defender Jonny Evans admits he's still underdone after Northern Ireland's defeat to Slovenia last night.

Northern Ireland lost their Euro qualifier 4-2 on Friday.

After the match, Evans confessed: "I didn't think I played great myself.

"I know I got a goal, but my own personal performance probably wasn't up to scratch.

"I'm experienced enough and wise enough to admit that. We can't be giving away cheap goals at the start of the game like we did.

"It was difficult to take in terms of the defence. That's something we have always been solid and quite strong with.

"Even during the game I was thinking this is not a typical Northern Ireland match especially away from home."
